I have OA rather badly. Left knee was bone-on-bone for multiple years prior to replacement 11-09. Right hip went from stage 2, to stage four inside 14 months due to my OA, so it was replaced 06-06-11. I am still in Pain MGNT. I still limp. I still get sore and have minor swelling after every ride. It hurts less now than it did prior to the surgery.

OA sux~!
