TKR I wouldn't do it again.

I'm very sorry you have had a bad outcome with your knee surgery. Most people recover and do well but not everyone. I hope your ROM continues to improve. Many find they have more in their second and even third year post-op.

@Skip, you are kidding right? You are much too early in this process to be so negative. 8 wks? Take it easy, work gently and I bet you'll get better. Others in this thread are exceptions not the rule. I truly feel for them and hope they can find an answer

I agree with @Starsfan22 that 8 weeks is too early to give up on recovery. I felt the same way though at 8 weeks because I was told by my OS that at 6 weeks I would be walking round as normal. I had really good improvement in week 10 but still needed to see improvement and I have - I am still not out of the water yet by a long way and sometimes wish for my old knee back but I think that is false memories about how much I could do with my old knee. I keep telling myself to be patient and it it takes a year or more then so be it........I don't always listen ......and thats when I come onto Bonesmart for support and a reminder. I hope you see more benefit from the op over the coming weeks and months.

@Deedar I am so sorry that you still feel this way after such a long time and hope that something can be done to help you to improve. xxx
