    Thank you. I'd lost track of how to find my thread and finally bookmarked it.

    TKR Update

    I'm post op as of May 2019 and I rarely think about the knee on a day to day basis but last night was surprised to note last night that most of the numbness has gone. At least 90% of it. I wasn't sure that was ever going to happen and either way wasn't an issue but it's good to have the...

    TKR Rockgirl4's Recovery---already full of surprises.

    Hello @Rockgirl4 and @luvcats just taking a quick browse through the site and there you are! I'm sorry you're having some issues still, I'm sending you my good wishes for resolution. After my bout with bursitis which was a quick fix once I mustered up the courage to go back to my surgeon...

    TKR Update

    This forum was such a help for me in the first few weeks of recovery - I'm now a year out and I think I was lucky to have a fast and relatively uneventful post op experience, helped by all my surgery contemporaries here on this forum and the wise moderators who, I feel sure, have seen most or...

    TKR Update

    Hello I'm right at the 6 month mark, and when asked I say I'm 98% good, truth is I'm 100% but hedging my bets just in case I need to complain at some point - specially to my long suffering husband. I'm back to Europe in December, Copenhagen - my favorite - it'll be freezing cold but still...

    @Neesie thanks for your comments, you're so kind but honestly I feel it's random and lots of hit or miss as to how the post op progression goes - I was one of the lucky ones. Probably in the next couple of years I will have to consider tearing into the right knee. Will be interesting to see...

    TKR Update

    RAD, luvcats, Neesie, and all the others out there. It's our last night in Brussels. Knee has been a trooper, not given it a thought, not a twinge or an icing or even a moment of doubt. It's five months post and I'm so over the worst for sure. Sometimes walked 9 miles during a day (iWatch...

    I'm a lurker too @winemama and always so happy to see our old friends @RAD @luvcats @Rockgirl4 . We're leaving for Europe next week. Notice if I carry anything heavy I pay for it the following day, I need to be constantly mindful but it's hard to be when knee feels normal. I say I'm pretty...

    TKR Update

    @RAD is in France right now and busy doing those daily 20 thousand steps. I'm going the end of the month, not sure I'll be able to equal that, but will give it a shot. I'll update.
