    So the saga continues... my knee now crackles at the side where I’m having the pain. It’s also happening much quicker than it was. I’m just sick over this, I can’t walk more than a few minutes and then it gets that awful pain. I made a surgeon appointment for next week but I’m not sure I will...

    Revision TKR Hmm. Not thrilled with the revision yet

    I am so with you:( I’m calling my surgeon I’m in so much pain. It takes nothing for my knee to flare up and cause so much pain. I just am hoping it’s just the it band but I can’t believe the pain excruciating when going down a slight hill or stairs.. I sure hope you feel relief soon!! Xx

    Revision TKR Jolease's knee saga part 3<^

    @Rockgirl4 When you had IT band issues, was yours aggravated by walking after just a short time? Also did it seem to start at hip and have awful pain at the side of the knee?
