what's the chances?

slim and NONE... 99 percent odds are on NONE.. Laughing

I have had my right knee basically rebuilt surgically a few decades ago from a very bad fall I took playing mens class A softball.
I tore the ACL, MCL, two tendons, destroyed the kneecap, damaged the cartlege by tearing it but otherwise was okay... Miz micro was really understanding as I recall. About as much as miz ribit may have been.. Rolling Eyes

The shoulder surgery was very painful especially for post surgical rehab.. Doc literally sawed off a piece of my clavicle.. He reconstructed the hamburger that was left of my entire rotator cuff muscles and sewed a lot of it together.
I remember vividly the first time my arm left the large sling and a therapist had it... It was okay until that vagrant tried to move it.. I nearly killed her..

So I believe the shoulder was likely for me in first place of the really bad pain but the reconstructed right knee was the most pain I ever had post surgery.. 10MG percocet was not relieving it... That is somepotent stuff. Then I had stronger stuff given me and I was hallucinating..

So its hard to say.. Each joint surgically repaired has its own sets of compounding problems.. I have done a great job of abusing my body from playing sports way too long and doing things I likely should not have done but hey, I was a great athlete wehn I was younger and I loved sports.

Eventually I took up golf which was easier on my body and then graduated to riding in a golf cart..

Now I'm just an old guy who has a hard time walking and waiting for the next boot to drop... My knee is next but I will delay as long as possible..

I do pray that your knee will heal quickly and the pain will be subsided quuickly. Its horrible to live in acute pain for extended time...
Still praying for you bro. God Bless.

Semper Fi !

....I seem to remember more pain with the hip. The shoulder hurt but I didn't have to walk on my shoulder so once I got to the point that I could operate the remote control and ring the bell for mz ribit to take care of other needs it was a piece of cake. Knee hasn't been any worse than hip or shoulder except that I have started to have hallucinations. Just yesterday I heard mz ribit say, "I think you are right!" What's the chances of that not being a hallucination.
