    TKR Scistica pain

    All my most severe pain, while I have had episodes for years. Never this severe. I woke up after my tkr are and have had severe sciatica for the last 5 months. I believe I will give this healing some more time, before I consider attaching basically an internal tens unit on my spine.

It was a long recovery, not a robotic surgery but old style, a lot of soft tissue problems, but I eventually moved past most of that. I worked out for 6 months prior, still have a membership, trying to keep my skeletal strong...
