Why on earth would your doctor say that to you? He or she didn't even suggest there might be the possibility of walking?

I'm so very glad you ignored your doctor, but I wonder how many people out there didn't and never even tried to walk again after complex knee surgery.

Not sure, TBH. I think he said I would be mobile, but my 1+ hours a day walking was probably not possible. I knew from after the 2nd surgery that it help, so I completely ignored him.

We put so much trust in doctors, so I agree, who knows how many people he's harmed with that attitude.
