    Ok thanks, this seems to start at and goes down to toes. Doesn’t really feel like the zingers but more of just a tingling.

    I have been looking through the forums for information about tingling down the leg. Didn’t really find what I was looking for. It has been 5 years since my right TKR. Recently I have been getting a tingling (pins and needles) feeling down that leg. Does anyone if this is normal?

    It been 7 months since my left knee replacement, have been doing great. I washed windows yesterday, climbing up and down ladder. Today my knee is hurting. Isn't my knee well past the point of overdoing? Opinions appreciated, thanks Candy

    Almost 10 weeks into recovery, doing great. Only 2 Tylenol at night. Bend is about 95 and getting better everyday. I do just about anything I want. A little sore at night, just elevate and ice does the trick. How are the other October people doing?

    Hey funkymuse yes it quite a process that's for sure. I wouldn't worry about the bend a this point. When I had my right knee surgery 4 years ago, they said the most I would get was maybe 90.
