    Please understand that I think I am an anomaly in regards to my recovery. Don't take my results and compare them to yours. Everyone is different and have different circumstances. There are different doctors, procedures, and hospitals so results will vary. Just keep working hard on the plan...

    My first PT from the doctor. My ROM was still 120 and my extension is zero. I have really done well and I attribute my success to preparation by reading this forum. I have lots of bruising though.

    I have decided to slow it down a little. It's not like I'm going anywhere.

    Good Afternoon everyone. I am day 3 of post-op on a left total knee replacement. I am doing and feeling well. I don't use my walker and occasionally I use my walker. I am icing and elevating. Doing my PT as ordered. Thanks for all of the advice I have been given.

    Thanks for the reminder. I'm starting to hurt again. I am sure I overdid it this morning.

    Thank jockette. I have forgotten about how it will be after the nerve wears off. I will prepare myself for lower numbers.

    I had my left total replacement May 22 around 4 pm. Last night was a little rough. Today has been awesome. I had my first PT and my ROM was 120. Of course I still have the nerve block so that could be the reason I am feeling well

    Good Morning from the state of Georgia. My left total knee replacement was yesterday around 4. I have been to PT this morning and I had 0 extension and 120 ROM. Last night was up and down, but today is good so far.

    I am starting my thread this afternoon as I also don't have one of those smart phones and my surgery is tomorrow, May 22nd, so I won't be able to get on my computer until I get back home. I am having a left total knee replacement. :dubious: I will see you ladies and gentlemen on the other side.
