I agree with all of the above comments. Had my right knee replaced last August and going up and down stairs initially is quite the adventure. I still favor the knee when I go up stairs now, but have no trouble entering or maneuvering around the Monty. As I recall, we hit the road about six weeks after the surgery and release from PT. Between now and your surgery, work out as much as you can to strengthen the thigh and leg muscles. It will make rehab a lot easier.
