    Well done Shaton,  I can't understand why so many different health care hospitals and  authorities  differ so much in the  after treatmen of TKR.

    You've done very well in just 4 sessions.  Hope your straightening is good, too, as that's often more difficult to sustain.

    Congratulations!

      Hi Sharon well done, I'm 7 weeks and had my 4th physio yesterday with a bend of 110 and straight leg was ok too.  I also had the choose and book and our private hospital under the nhs and cannot fault my treatment right from the word go.  I will definitely go for this when I get my other knee done (not yet, phew not even sure I could go through that pain again)!  How is your pain, I'm still waking up several times in the night and getting random upset stomachs?  X

    I was lucky to have 6 weeks of physio! I am at 13 weeks post op and the hard part is disiplining myself to continue my exercises at home. I do them at least once a day but should still be doing them 2x. No excuses. No disipline!

    I'm 7 weeks TKR, had 18 physical therapy sessions and my surgeon just wrote a script for 10 more due to the problem with my quads not responding.
