    Oh dear, thats not good and good certainly be an issue. Im sure its all about the insurance. Maybe once I tell them I moved to another city from where my original OS lives, that will help. Insurance didnt have any problem with the new PT, but PT services are quite a less more than OS. Can...

    I'll try to get better pictures but so far this is the one I have. And he said, "Loud pops of the capsule…flexion was up to 140deg (your heel touched your butt). Take the pain you must work through all that.." That's all I got from him. I'm considering seeing a revision specialist but don't...

    Just out of curiosity I decided to compare my xray with ones I found on google. Mine was THE only one I could find that the tibia component hangs over the back -exactly where feel the pain when I try to go beyond 90 (where the tibia and fib come together) ! This would make sense as to why I...

    @KarriB OMG, that is crazy that the original OS said the pain and swelling were due to her age! What an insult! and your friend with the TKR then MUA, was she also having pain or just unable to bend? Does she at least have 90? @Celle ,Will an xray determine if the spacer is too big?

    @Craig1 , i would so get a second opinion as @Clipless said. Two years is plenty of time for your current OS to fix the problem..keep in kind he may know that you will never get any more bend but can't "admit" this so he just keeps trying MUA's just so you'll think he's at least trying...

    @Craig1 , did the OS have an explanation? and are all your MUA's on the same knee? What's the next step..a scope? And why did the OS think 2 MORE MUA's after the first would be successful? My OS said 2 MUA's then a scope but I think Im going right for the scope if this MUA doesnt work and so far...

    I do need to remember this and the other comments as well. And as mentioned, I do have swelling but not a gross amount. My pain is barely noticeable and its more of a slight muscle ache only when I touch my quad (Well, unless i try to bend beyond 90). It's like I've done a few too many leg...

    What was your ROM before the MUA? And what is it now 4 wks post? What IS that deep back of knee pain? Do all MUAs get that? Does it prevent you from bending as well? ie-feel like cement?

    I'm on the pain MEDS even tho my leg is still numb, lol. Ok so here's my concern.. I STILL can't bend this thing. It feels exactly like it did before the MUA.. ie-back of knee deep inside is excruciating when trying to get past 90 and that "concrete not budging any more" feeling. Is that...

    Hi all. Had my MUA today at 10am and doc said it was difficult to get my foot to my butt but he got it. I'm on my way to pt now. Here's a question for anyone who's had an MUA.. I can't bend it anymore right now than before surgery and have significant pin behind my knee when I try...
