Hello everyone. I had my TKR 7 weeks ago. It seems that the knee is doing ok........Now my proble is that the other knee (the right) needs doing too and it's playing up and won't let me walk properly with my new knee Anybody expeirenced this. It's so frustrating and i'm not really physically ready for the second op right now. Any experience welcome. I know nothing can be done a part from the second op but it's getting me down a bit

Like you I was panicky and couln't face more surgery so soon.
But as my right knee got stronger my left wasn't as bad, and it was another two years before I had to get that one done.
That was last August, and although I still have stiffness in the morning, I'm glad I have two new knees, and the second isn't as bad to have done, as you already know that the pain gets better.
Hopefully, your new knee will strengthen up and give you a bit of breathing space, fingers crossed.
Don't get too depressed, just think of the time when it's all over and the arthritis pain has gone, it will come :-)
