Revision of knee replacement

I have to decide whether to have revision surgery to replace the first that hasn't been successful. Would be grateful if anyone out there who have had revision could share their experience.

My pain/problems started about 3months after a promising start to recovery. Initially the bend was good but as the weeks went by (13th Dec 2013) it stiffened and I can't get more than 90 degrees. Stairs,getting up from sitting and turning over in bed still hurt and ,like you,the joint feels too big for the skin around it. I recently had an emotional meltdown and even considered early retirement (midwife) and couldn't see my future for feeling like a cripple......dramatic,I know. Occupational Health have suggested trying the Pain Management team.
Well,enough wallowing,watch this space! Have a fab break in such a lovely part of the country.
