I mean, what medical condition?

I mean, I think that for me, I had arthritis.

But the way that I was walking around, you know, on a concrete with, you know, little flat shoes and stuff like that didn't help much either.

What kind of conditions lead to the need for a knee replacement?

a lot of people who don't understand or don't know about this, or they've been kind of thinking about it, how long is the process for them getting, I mean, the surgery itself, how long does it take?

And then how long will they stay in the hospital?

And then, no, you talked about the average, well, you talked about recovery time.

Somebody had two weeks, and they were back out there.

But what's usually the average in terms of recovery time?

uh with when your knees get replaced and that i guess recovery is kind of a an interesting word you know but uh can you kind of work with us a little bit on that one sure and and hips too i mean yeah hips hips and knees seem to be the the things that are replaced the most that i see for sure that's that's right the the uh the surgery takes i would say it generally in a really routine situation

And that was the thing for me, Stan, I mean, that, you know, when I was going through my surgery, that's what you told me, stay ahead of the pain.

Stay ahead of it, yeah.

So now when I talk to people who are going through the same experience, I just say, you know, stay ahead of the pain, you know, because there is some pain.

And, you know, it's really, you know, like I said, this is really a great conversation because

I know that there are many people that I know.

I'm coming from a community perspective.

There are many people who are struggling with this.

There are various factors that are there.

First of all, you talked about the unknown, the uncertainty.

Then you talk about the insurance, what's the cost going to be.
