@galactic33, Both of my knees were bone on bone but my right one had a lot of pain so I opted to get the knee replacement. I did have some minor concern about my neuropathy which I have had since my mid to late 40s possibly getting worse. I was fortunate to have a great Mayo surgeon Dr. Daniel Saris. I was able to discuss all of my concerns that were addressed by members on his team. I wouldn't say my recovery was uneventful but I think it was pretty normal. I did have some swelling and pain and had I heeded my surgeon and care team instructions on icing and elevating as much as possible during the recovery, my recover would have been much smoother. One thing that did help me was six weeks of pre-surgery exercises and post-surgery exercises which my surgeon gave me during my first consult with his team. I think you will find a lot of support in the TKR discussions here on Connect.
