Hi to everyone and I hope everyone is doing well! I had my LTKR on June 21,2018! I’m so glad I had it done! I have quite a lot of pain but I have been walking some on it and I have been doing my PT exercises! I start my PT on June 26th. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to walk right again! I’ve been reading a lot of info on Patient for a long time and it has really helped me! Thanks to all of you!

    What a lovely, positive attitude!    I am 7 weeks post op.  I haven’t been as positive as you but I am indeed seeing progress in tiny increments.    

    You made me smile!  Best wishes for a good recovery & walking without pain eventually!

    Glad to hear you’re doing well with positive attitude.  Had 2nd tkr March 16. This is better than the first tkr and previous  pkr.

    Still working on strength but danced at my niece’s wedding two weeks ago. No canes or “sticks”. Good continuing luck!
