@cindymattern Oh my gosh. I thought I was alone in this. I feel so much worse off than before surgery. Yes there was pain before but it was not constant. This is constant. Mainly left leg from hip to knee. Had second knee replacement 1 year abo and it is all starting on the other leg now too. I s ee others that have no problems at all and I am jealous.

@jematal I too had that band feeling. I was told by physical therapist that it is the IT band. Some say it can be stretched and pain relieved with a foam roller. Mine finally went away but I am having issues with my patella. I too wish I knew of these possible side effects.
