Just curious ouch89...if you had the same surgeon do your revision surgery? I've had a 2nd opinion who made a diagnosis of patellar Clunk surgery (I wrote to you about this) but the 2nd opinion doc is out of state. Not sure if I should have the fix it surgery with my original TKR doc who says I have to wait another 4 months for more healing or just leave his care altogether. 🤷🏼 Decisions, decisions.

The revision surgery was done with another surgeon who also did my successful knee. I'm at the point of making another follow up appointment but hesitate when I'm having a better day. The healing process is so long that we can get easily frustrated. Good luck.

Hi Irene. I suggest finding another surgeon. And please look for. surgeon who specializes in revisions, as it sounds like that's what you need. Finally, I'm not sure why a scope is necessary to diagnose your problem. Time to find another Dr I suggest. All the best to you.

("Patellar Clunk Syndrome" is new to me. Where did you find an explanation of this situation?)
