In recent months I had a total knee replacement. I waited the recommended time to get it done, but when I came around after the operation, I found that I was incontinent and it lasted three to four days.
Yes I did have an epidural in my spine. At no time did anyone tell me that this could happen, staff or doctors. One night, the nurse was not very understanding when I was wet, before anyone came to me. And I still have far too much swelling on my knee, since I had it replaced.
