Thanks so much for your response. Can I ask you how far out of TKR you are? Did the doctors say what kind of recovery to expect? I’m curious if there’s a chance of regression at all. After everything I’ve done, it would be terrible if scar tissue would form quickly again and not help or even reduce my flex. My extension is perfect, which of course I’m happy with. When do you plan on doing your surgery? I’m very curious how things go .

@golfshrink My TKR was on 10.17.2017. We were in NYC for the weekend, starting on 12.07.2017, and I was walking comfortably all over the place when we were there.
I plan to schedule my appointment for the Arthroscopic Lysis of Adhesions in February. They will not put me on the schedule until I have some lab work done and I will do that the second week of February and get an appointment as soon as possible after that. I understand that after the surgery there is a similar recuperation as there is after the TKR, with PT or just exercising on your own.
That's an excellent question about possible regression. I will have to ask them that. I will try to keep you up on things in February.
