It also depends on how active you have been before also. I am on month 4 post op and I think if I didn’t have any complications I’d be almost back to normal. I think the biggest thing is the muscles being weak that takes so long, and they take so long to fully heal… muscles take 4-6 months and nerves even longer. Tendons over a year… all info from my PT.
But the pain you had is all gone and a lot of people say they wish they had done it soonet
