Well my knee still hurts 4 years posr TKR, I am one of the unlucky ones. My other knee has had 3 coolief treatments, first one was great, second not good, third better than second but not great. I have also had Coolief on the replaced knee and it has helped a to some degree. Went to a revisionist but will see another. i was told it looked fine but this doc is part of the same practice that the doc who did the replacement is from. He looked at my other knee xray and said i still have some space so avoid a TKR as it may not be any better you than the first. In Oct. i will see a second doc who does revisions and was highly recommended in Boston just to get his opinion and have him look at other knee. I will bring him my new MRI of the other knee plus xrays of both. anyone else have a failed TKR.
