Avatar n tn My mom is going to have bilateral knee replacement surgery in India. From the conversation with my parents, what I figured, the doctor is going to use oxinium Knee replacement implant (which is from Smith and nephew).

964075 tn?1390448278 Hello Dr Hagan..... I've been to several Nuro ophthalmologist, the cause of my diplopia was a surgery to treat lazy eye, sadly if I'd know that simple surgery was going to open up Pandora's box I would have never done it...... I believe the medical community should be more open to inform people like myself the possibility that nothing can be done, at least it truly prepares people to seek information on conditions such as this.....

Avatar f tn I am scheduled to have orthoscopic knee surgery on my right knee to correct problems I am having related to osteoarthritis.

6473455 tn?1381627629 So, in my opinion, you must discuss the risks and then first go ahead with aneurysm surgery and then with the knee surgery. Depending on the location, risk of hemorrhage, risk of rupture, family history, etc, your surgeon will estimate the risk. Also ask your ortho specialist whether there are other options for you except knee replacement surgery. Then if your neuro-surgeon feels you can wait for a year or more and have MRI in between to monitor progress, then you can wait this time.

Avatar n tn My husband had the Synvisc One shot in June 2011 a month after his knee surgery. He had to be admitted to the hospital for three days and he could not move from the shoulders on down. He then gt shingles from all the predisone. It is now on year later and he was diagnoised with reheumatoid arthritis. He takes all kinds of medications and still in alot of pain. The doctors said it was because of the shot.
Avatar n tn I believe it will be up to her doctor, but in my opinion the heart is more important than the cataract surgery at this time. If it was my family member, I would highly suggest that you follow up with the heart investigation first.
393942 tn?1315560152 About 3 weeks ago I had knee surgery. The Doc did 3 seperate things to my knee. He cleaned out more arthritis, repaired my minicus, and a lateral release. Since the surgery I have developed a hugh lump on the outside part of my knee and my whole leg swelled. My doc said that the only thing that will help all the swelling would be a compression stocking. The stocking helped from my knee down but did nothing from my knee up. The lump is still as big as ever.
