My new knee is 6 weeks old!!!
Posted , 7 users are following.
I've been moaning and groaning about sleeplessness, misery tears, pretty much everything other than pain, ever since my TKR.
Today my new knee is 6 weeks old - and as a gift to myself, I got to sleep last night for a whole 8 hours!!! Woop Woop!!
I was told, just wait until you get to 6 weeks post surgery and you'll feel so much better ...
Well, here I am, now at 6 weeks and I'm hoping my tears and sleeplessness diminish from here on in. I hope I'm not jinxing things so happy birthday to my knee!

I'm 7 weeks and am sleeping worse than I did at first! I think my problem is that at first I couldn't move and now I can my body is trying to return to my usual tossing and turning but my knee won't let it roll over as it hurts/pulls.
Any tips will be most welcome .... Have tried meds at night time, herbal remedies and last night it was the relaxation track. Aargh!
