Good Afternoon,
I am so happy to have found this group! I had PKR on 9/6/19. I am very frustrated with the whole process. It has been 6 weeks and I am still walking with a bad limp, can't bend my knee fully and can't extend it fully either. I can't sleep at night because I can't find a comfortable position. To touch my knee and my calf, is very painful and I randomly get awful spasms in my knee. So bad that it makes me cry out "OUCH"! I am doing PT 2 times a week, and I feel like all they are trying to do is get me to bend my knee and then extend it. I can't climb stairs normally, from what am told by PT is that I should be doing that already. I feel like I have this bubble in my knee that if it were to pop it would make everything all better. I see my doctor for a 6 week f/u on Thursday 10/24/19 and hoping he can give me some insight on all the pain and frustration I am feeling. Any advise would be great!
Thank you all for listening,
Christine
