    Did they remove the scar tissue? Did you get any relief from that? I’m so sorry you still have pain. I’m getting nervous for Thursday, but I have to try something.

    Bilateral TKR Post-TKR Scar Removal Scope

    Hi all...I had bilateral TKR in 8/2017 and have been screaming since then that my knees are full of scar tissue.

    Bilateral TKR Post-TKR Scar Removal Scope

    Hi...I would have, but it’s actually not the knee replacement that’s causing the problems. I have great ROM, there is no problem with the joints, it’s the “skin” sensations that are miserable, and it seems now we have identified it as Small Fiber Neuropathy.

    Sorry, I didn’t see this reply until tonight. Yesterday, my new Neurologist diagnosed me with Small Fiber Neuropathy. I’m on Lyrica and Nortryptiline. Does anyone have any experience with this?

    Bilateral TKR Post-TKR Scar Removal Scope

    Finally had the MRI. Haven’t seen the neurologist yet to give the results, but with my understanding of anatomy, I don’t see anything that could be the problem. They did, however, find a lesion in my left kidney, will have to address that later. Appointment with a new pain management doctor...

    Thank you. I agree, this is too long and too much! But what can we do when the insurance company dictates my options? I’ve wondered if I had an attorney call them? I’m at my wits end.

    I hate that we are at the mercy of the insurance companies. Deny, delay, disrupt, etc... I'm 16 months out, 24/7 pain for every single day of this journey. I Need advocates at all levels, physicians, specialists, insurance company, labs, etc. I swear, I am going to lose my mind. Needed Ativan...

    Bilateral TKR Post-TKR Scar Removal Scope

    I have to have my Neurologist schedule a Peer-to-Peer review. And so far, she hasn't scheduled that. I have 14 days or it is canceled completely. And, now the Pain Mgmt Doctor I was referred to is "reviewing" my case to see if he'll even take it on. "If" he does, he won't schedule until the end...
