Hey everyone! I couldn't find a thread quite like this one, so I'm hoping you all might be able to help me out with some info. My grandmother (she's 78) needs to go in for knee surgery—a total joint replacement, I think that's the term they use—so if anyone here has gone through the exact same thing or just knows a bit more about the process, could you please share? I'm looking for the lowdown on what the actual surgery is like, how the recovery goes, physical therapy, and all that good stuff. Thanks so much in advance!

P.S. I totally meant to put "knees" in the title—my bad, just a quick typo 🙂

The cheapest ones usually run about 15 to $6.75 (well, they used to be closer to 🙂 a couple of years back), while the high-end stuff hits around 50. Honestly, it might just be because you’ve been losing weight lately. Why not just go see a doctor and get this whole thing sorted out once and for all?

So, I took a pregnancy test just a few days after my period was late—and because I didn't want to leave anything to chance, I actually did two of them, one of those cheap drugstore ones and one of the more expensive brands just to be absolutely sure 🙂. As far as symptoms go, I didn't really feel much of anything, except for this constant, overwhelming urge to nap all day long.

Honestly, just go take a pregnancy test. I didn't have any symptoms at all—well, except for my period being late—and I was pregnant... Not trying to freak you out or anything! 🙂
