Spacer replacement 4 years after TKR

I am having a hard time finding information regarding spacer replacement surgery and recovery expectations. All the literature seems to be on either TKR or replacements due to infection. My 10 year old KR dislocated due to accident. It tore my posterior ligament so is unstable. I am scheduled in 2 months for new spacers but want to know what recovery and PT was like.

I had a spacer replaced. I felt the initial pain was as bad for a few days. However the physical therapy was easier and results faster. Generally the recovery was easier and faster.
