I am scheduled for total knee replacement for my right knee on November 4th.  I am bone on bone and have been for quite some time.  It is now becoming noticeable that my right thigh is considerable smaller due to atrophy.  People can even tell when I am wearing slacks.  My Dr. has told me that the knee will become straight again.  It currently looks like a sideways "V".  I am hopeful that the new knee and the resulting change in my gait will lessen the problems that I am experiencing in my back, leg and feet and that the atrophy of the thigh will normalize.
