David,
Have you spoken to Derek Bickerstaffe, consultant at RHH. He was in my year
and now is shit hot knee surgeon. If he's not keen then I don't think it is
wise. I have a similar patient aged 50 whose on John Getty's w/l (Consultant
at NGH). He's been crippled and on diconal and df118 for 5 years. he has
given in and wants 5-15 years pain free before his fusion at 65 years. Give
me a ring if you wish more info.
