I am thee months p/o from having tkr surgery. When I walk I have the feeling of a tight band around my knee. My knee is very stiff. I do physical therapy 3 x a week. I walk a mile, drive, etc. my rom is only 107 and that is with force and pain. I am feeling very depressed and discouraged. Has anyone else dealt with this feeling?

Yes, your symptoms mirror mine. I just quit PT last week after 6 months. I now take each day as it comes. I am very active around the house up and down stairs, bending, lifting, cooking, vacuuming, mopping. In addition I'm fostering a blind dachshund. I get so tired and achy and both legs hurt at night. I'm at the point where I think the only where are you to heal is to do. Not everyone feels the way I do, but I'm just listening to my body. Btw, I'm 7 months out.
