Hey, you have just been through a MAJOR surgery! You feel a loss for your old knee, even though it has worn out & we are lucky to have replacement surgery available.
Let's face it, this is a life change...the rehab is long & you feel tired after years of pain. Take it a day at a time. The first knee replacement I had, I cried the second night for about a half hour...really over the loss of my real knee. Take care, things do get better & one day you will be so thankful that you were able to have a new knee put in.
Blessings!
