Greetings! Woo-hoo I am now entering my fourth month post TKR! I'm doing well. A few odd pains here and there but overall excellent recovery. I still keep a cane in car, but rarely need it. I will only use if traveling or a fold-up one if at a conference, etc over the next year.
That odd pain if I positioned my leg side-ways a certain way, off the side of leg, not knee, is not as bad. And it only happens if I pull/ position/ twist leg a certain way. Needs more time to resolve. But I'm less worried now. Just an issue with this left TKR I've summed up.
I still sometimes tire easily when I get home from work -- grab a nap sometimes right after work then get up to cook or whatever. Sleep is improving, especially if I take a hot shower before bed.
Once in a while doing nothing I'll still get a 'zinger' pain. Part of the full recovery I am thinking.
This weekend I want to try to slowly peddle a rental bike. I've said that before but this weekend I'll try it.![bicycle1 :bicycle1: :bicycle1:](https://bonesmart.org/forum/jofox_images/bicyclesmi.gif)
Thank you everyone for all of your support those early days ))hugs((
