Don't know whether you've tried medical websites, but you have a much better chance of finding something there. These days nearly every complaint one can think of has its own websites, online support groups, chat rooms etc.
Good luck,

Mike aren't kidding you either. First search I did came up with:
:lol: :lol:
Anybody know if you can literally replace your ankle? I've been plagued with ankle injuries to my ligaments and wouldn't mind a new one. I've asked my mum for a replacement but there's no use taking it back.

For example:
Blimey, I've even seen another site where you can see a live webcast of a hip replacement operation! :shock:

Knee replacements take some time to settle down, but after a while they are well worth it. My father now has complete mobility compared to before the op.
I've just been studying my kness and I can't help thinking that of all the bits weve got perhaps the kness are the one bit that ain't quite right, I've just got this sneaky feeling that they might have been better the other way round, just for things like tying shoe laces, cuting toe nails and stuff ,cos it seems odd that the minute I bend my kness they stick out blocking the view of my feet. I wil admit there would be a few disadvantages like sitting with yer legs crossed, but thats a small price to pay to my mind. I'm sure there are many mums out there, that are well pissed off with their kids tearing the kness out of their trousers when they are playing, which just wouldn't happen if their kids knees were round the back. Babies would have to learn to walk much quicker like other mammals as crawling just wouldn't work, but hey we could all squat a lot easier so perhaps thats a pay off.
I don't know weighing it all up if this idea is a goer, but seeing as your gonna go through with the pain of having em done Bob, whats the chances of getting em to fit them the other way round and popping back to tell us if my suspicions are right and that life really is better with your knees round the back.

Yet again daveJ has asked a deeply worrying question.
While I recognise the difficulties one may experience in having one's knees placed in the standard format, I think that not enough thought has been given to having knees in the non-standard format.
Firstly, acceptable and indeed enjoyable sexual practices employing the well known "kneeling down" position would be somewhat difficult to achieve. The standard "69" position for example would involve a plethora of feet in the wrong places.
Secondly, cars would need to be redesigned with the pedals underneath the present seating positions.
Thirdly, the entire olympic games athletic programme would need to be changed to include sprintinting/relay races going backwards. While I do not doubt the obvious crwod pleasing advantages to this I feel it it a trad extreme.
So,sorry daveJ we must remain happy with what we have despite the obvious disadvantages of normal joints.

No wonder it didn't make sense!!

I wonder if eyebrow replacements would be with donor eyebrows or prosthetic ones?
reasons for replacement.. worn out with all that raising of them... unable to look at anyone in either suprise or one eyebrowed suspicion.

after 3 unsuccessfull operations on my left knee, it was replaced by a synthetic replacement,
it took a couple of years to really get used to it, but now you would never notice, well except for the scar.
i can run, jump, and have even played 5 a side, oh and i still fly monster traction kites. kneeling is still a bit of an issue, but i have found it never has stopped me having any sort of fun.

I've had 2 ops now, one on each knee.
Had cruciate ligament damage on one, which was fixed with keyhole and the other was was to repair damage to the articular cartilage on my femur and tibia behind the to grind off wear and tear, and make them smooth again so as to not lock or jam painfully.
Solved in under 2 hours, with MIS, which was really easy to go through. Hurt for a couple of days and very stiff after for around a month. But afterwards was great, and still playing stupid amounts of my chosen sport
On the other hand, was told that the recovery time goes up slightly depending on your age, but nothing major :D
I can get away with it as only a pup :P
But good luck with every thing and hope all goes well, it really does help imensely .....oh and see you at the limbo munch :P
