If I get up at night to use the restroom, and go back to bed, the knee pain can quickly start to hurt. I have no idea what is causing it. The pain driving is not every time though it is new. I fear I have failed this surgery.
@Josephine how does this help a knee that might need a different size spacer?Yes, the second opinion surgeon talked about changing the spacer but I have to do conservative measures first. 3-6 months of quad strengthening.
I have been offered the option of either a liner exchange or a complete revision.
What is your opinion @Josephine ?Any insight would be appreciated.
That's not really your choice. The surgeon will have to decide when he opens your knee and sees what's going on. It might be that there is a loose component and he can just change and refit that, or it might end up requiring the entire device to be removed and replaced. But that's HIS decision and only his.I have been offered the option of either a liner exchange or a complete revision.
