The providers will ALWAYS tell you everyone but you is a success . They are deceitful at best complicit more likely. TKR is an amputation —-that seldom has the results the patient hoped for, particularly if they wanted to continue a very active life style. For very sedentary individuals it has worked best and i have been told this in confidence by a provider.
I have had every requisite test, bone scans included and no-one really wants to touch me.they realize its just a failure and what ever they try MAY MAKE IT WORSE.
So, what to do? Resign yourself to the fact this is the new you. Like a person with either cancer or a disability. Be grateful you learned a lesson. Find hobbies you can do without using that leg much. Be grateful for the other things in your life.
Don’t be bitter or beat yourself up over the condition- it is what is….
And don’t fall prey to looking for medical solutions from the very people who put you in this position…….
