@ellerbracke Thanks for the explanation. I might buy the TKR being the cause because with your physical fitness program you would have been in trouble a long time ago if there had been unevenness. I wonder if you can just “stretch” the good leg.

This is quite amazing. I also do sciatica prevention at least 5 days a week. My personal trainer showed me just two exercises the Pigeon and a twist. I owe her a lot. PT and surgeon never mentioned any preventive body work. And I am green with envy about your 2 miles walking. That used to be me before neuropathy. With weekly MFR I am back to 1 mile.

But my dear....you bring home the prize.....37-29-37. That is fantastic and an acknowledgement to your fitness choices and perhaps your food choices. Congratulations! Celebrate! Chris

Chris: before I got measured for orthotics, my PT had me do extensive stretching of the good leg, and scrunching of the TKR leg. Lots of reps. some involving holding those stretches for 30 seconds, 10 times, each, twice a day. No change, so that’s when he admitted that it can’t be exercised away.
