my arthritis in my knees is terrible. I have taken atenalol for 25 years to stablize my heart beat.. not for BP...very low dose. I am too old for Knee replacement... will be 82 soon.

My elderly dad had partial knee replacements in his mid 60's. The surgery was a success some 20 years ago. Fast forward a few years and he has had both shoulder joints replaced in the last couple of years

How can the ‘patient’ not know that no surgery was performed? No incisions, no inflammation, no pain?

Might this be a Nigerian thing?
