“Life is so much easier.”

Sheila’s Story

What was life like before joint replacement?
Before undergoing joint replacement surgery, my life was miserable. I walked with a limp and was constantly in pain. I could only do minimal activities.

What was the turning point for you?
The pain was so intense that I could not endure it any longer. I couldn’t walk long distances, so I decided enough was enough.

What is life like now?
I was walking and driving within two weeks of my surgery. I could not have asked for a better surgical team.

What advice would you give others considering joint replacement?
Go see your doctor as soon as possible. Your life will be so much easier.
