My knee flexion was 70 degrees in September pre arthrolysis , 5 months after TKreplacement. It is worth while having the surgery, I am back at work full time as a nurse, but I do still have neuropathic pain.
I have had several physiotherapists, my current one seems to understand arthrofibrosis, he is now working on my muscle weakness

@gator1965 My flex is about 115 so I have a lot less to gain than you did, which is why I hesitate to do lysis. Also, unlike you with neuropathic pain, I do not have any pain most of the time. Last weekend I did have some minor pain after walking a lot all over NYC.

I am glad that your physiotherapist is helping, it seems as if some help very little. I hope with that help you will be able to get rid of the pain. I have had a couple of good physical therapists over the year, but more that were not very helpful.
