Scar tissue after knee replacement

Dear JK (and all) -

Re the X10... I'm having problems getting answers (of any kind) after my first short phone conversation with a person
who was mainly in the "sales" end of this (these are a kind of short term lease @ about $ 125 per day). He suggested
that I speak with or have my physical therapist speak with a "physical therapy person" they have on staff, but in over
a week of calling - no response. Everything I was able to read off their site suggests that best results are immediately
AFTER surgery or an MUA (which makes sense - because that's when they have the best chance of "moving" the knee
towards gains in both directions. It's unfortunate that their area of availability is so limited and that they are so difficult
to get answers out of. If you think about it - they don't really have to provide much, because they have so many desperate
people out there who are willing to try anything at any cost or inconvienence. That's a tragic statement in itself.

But... I will continue to research this further and if I end up making this pilgrimage, I'll keep everyone there updated on
the results (good or otherwise). My main question is "Can this help me now 7 weeks after the MUA and about 14 weeks
after the surgery ?" All I'm getting is a sort of unspecified "maybe" (which sounds like we are only certain of the same one
thing - they will get paid regardless).

best all 9and thanks),

John

@gutthookd Please do keep us updated. Does insurance cover the X10 at all? If you have to use it for long that's a pretty high per diem. How long do they recommend using it?
