Hi Everyone, I am brand new here and am so relieved to have found a community that is on my same journey. I had my RTKR on September 9th, 2021. My recovery has been very bumpy with terrible reactions to medication, nausea, vomiting, rash all over my body, hot flashes and, as a result, improperly managed pain and post op depression. The other result of all this is that my ROM flexion is stuck at 90. I have been so committed the last 3 weeks to improve it, I think I just made it worse by working it too hard (so sorry for the person who just tripped in her pants!).
I have had so many surgeries and ACL reconstructions on my knees previously, and always sailed through the recoveries, I naively thought I would do the same with this TKR. It's been a very humbling and frustrating journey thus far. Thank you all for being here and sharing your experience, strength and hope!
