I had an extremely easy recovery from my TKR. I attribute that to:
1) Surgeon that everyone raves about who does robotic surgery
2)continuous flow ice machine (on amazon and elsewhere)
3) bed that uses a remote to raise and lower the foot.
I had an amazingly short recovery. Best of luck to you!

Ditto in all that. My husband flew
To another city to get surgery from THE guy. Booked a Homewood suites for 5 days - has bedroom , livingroom with lounge chair, and kitchen with full stove and fridge. ice machine in the hall with perfect ice to feed machine that pumps ice water around your knee. Breakfast in lobby if you want.
Uber for follow up with Doc. Flew home Day 6. So wherever THE guy practices, it can be done.
