thanks for your comments. I am realizing everyone is different. Several folks told me they expect me to be up and walking in a month. Only one person suggested it would be a long recovery. I am taking it one step or day at a time.

I listened to a lot of people before deciding on surgery. My expectations were unrealistic. I just got released from my doctor who advised me I will continue to get better, so yes it can be a long process. My knee was pretty messed up so I wonder sometimes if it just depends on how much knee damage all these people had; might make a difference. I’m glad I had the surgery but I still have some healing to do. Hang in there!

Thanks for the reality check. Do you (or anyone) know what impact on tkr surgery occurs when there is deformity (knock knee)?
