Hi All,

Thanks for all your advise and encouragement.

Extension now down from -12 post op to -6 at nearly 6 months.

Keeping going as determined to get to 0 by my 12 month check.!!!

I'm now beginning to feel the benefit and managing work with a few swollen days. Feeling the other knee a bit more now but exercising that too. It's going to.need doing but a few years behind the other one. Not saying every days good but so.mych better. Brother being investigated for cancer this week puts things in perspective.

My friends are saying I look 10 years younger ha ha they are good friends.

It's been and still is a haul but we will all hopefully get there.

Thank you all who answered my long essays and shared valuable info!

I some times wish a sledge hammer could straighten my knee but have refrained from that 😊😂😂

Happy weekend all x

    Glad you are doing so well! I too am 6mths post TKR and looking at my other knee within a year. Everyday the operated knee improves a little (sometimes there's a not so great knee day in there).
