Overshare: I went to the knee doctor today, and it looks like I'm getting a full knee replacement in 13 days.

I'm not looking forward to this but I really need to get this fixed. I've been limping rather badly for months now.

But then, I'll be recuperating for a few weeks at home, so I'll have plenty of time to post on ST.
