PSST!
I've seen a lot of people where you are!
You are probably searching the void of the Internet for information about how to get ready for hip or knee replacement. There's a LOT of information out there, but what parts of it are right?
You have two options: stay confused about all of this, and hope you followed the right advice OR follow a proven roadmap tested by over a decade of research and evidenced-based practice. I'll cut to the chase here. I've got that roadmap, and it only costs $49. To use an overused but brilliant ad campaign phrase: Do you know what is priceless?
- Not having to go to the emergency room for constipation (how embarrassing would that be?)
- Knowing what aspects of surgery YOU should be driving and what to leave in the hands of your experienced surgeon. (You don't need to control nearly as much as you might think!)
- Knowing what options should be available to you for pain control. (hint...it's not like back in the day when all you got was a million tablets of Percocet!)
- Knowing how to prepare for the "for sure" difficulty of postoperative swelling, and how to deal with it the best. (This will probably be THE most challenging aspect of your recovery)
- Knowing what to look for in a prospective surgeon, to be sure you are taking advantage of the best and latest practices. (A very wise surgeon once told me, "You don't want to be the first to jump on a new practice, but you don't want to be the last to leave an old one.")
Joint replacement preparedness is a class that I love to teach. I can pull you off the misinformation hamster wheel and put you in the co-driver's seat right next to your orthopedic surgeon. Because let's face it, my sweet friend. You don't want to be in the driver's seat on this one. I know you will feel relieved and calmer about learning what matters.
