Wow spinner you shared information that is a validation for my situation that so far no one else has communicated. That is the femur connection with a tkr. I had tkr Feb. of 23. The whole experience was difficult. Did alot of various things but my bend never got much beyond 90. Then in April of this year I took a step in my kitchen my knee buckled and found out my femur fractured. No one mentioned the tkr connection to my fracture but I always wondered. I have another second opinion appointment coming up to discuss what my next step is. The ongoing healing of my femur has given me more mobility but still difficult.

Sending My prayers for your healing and hope the fracture wasn’t too great. It seems even though we sign the dotted line that we accept the risks of surgery, we hope we don’t have complications. My fracture was definitely the result of too much pressure against the scar tissue. Obviously I’m changing surgeons for the next procedure.
