    Poifect!!!!!!!!!!!  People don't understand that a TKR recovery takes a   L   O   N   G   time...  Great news.  I'm almost 17 months and 0 / +133...no pain.

    Fantastic it just shows that even though you

    can start feeling so much better after a few months it can take a year to get back to normal. Well done.

    That is great news! I am 6 months post op left TKR and have been doing very well.I can walk up & down stairs correctly & on good days do it without holding the railing. Take long walks with no problem but today I feel lousy! My knee hurts when walking & doing the stairs are painful also. Did you have really bad days once in a while? I feel really down in the dumps today. The swelling has gone down nicely but feels warm today. Think I will ice it & pray tomorrow will be a better day!
