I am 4 months post op from TKR and extension is real good but only 70-80 degrees ROM! They won’t scope to remove scar tissue as there is other issues similar to CRPS keeping me from surgery. I have been tested negative for CRPS and they have their hands on the air on don’t know what I have. I tried to get into Mayos in Scottsdale and Rochester for testing both Orthopedic and Neurological....but got denied. I tried 3 other Ortho groups and have been denied. Can’t get into a specialist Ortho Doc till July 10th!! In the meantime I walk around like a peg legged 56 year old frustrated Nebraskan!!!

@hoover I can feel your frustration. I hope when the July appointment finally happens, that it will provide some answers and solutions. I presume you are on a wait list in case any appointments get cancelled. I find that I have often been able to get in sooner because there are bound to be some who cancel for one reason or another. In the meantime do the best you can, what other options are there?
