Yes, there are many who have a positive experience with a TKR. Most people posting here are seeking solutions and possible suggestions when their outcomes were not what they hoped for. The people with good experiences have no need to hang around for very long, so you won't read too many positives here, which is a shame for those considering surgery. I had both knees done, one year apart and am very happy with the results. No more pain, and I can kneel using pads for gardening, full mobility otherwise, stairs no problem. I have 5 friends and/or family members that have had TKR's and none had problems so far.

Thank you for posting. I’ve been getting knee injections for a few years. First Hyalgan, then steroid. I think I’m getting closer to needing a TKR. My biggest concern was inability to kneel post op. Most people that I know who’ve had one are unable to kneel.
