My 1 year is coming up also. The knee is good most of the time with no pain. I do still have some clunking at times and some swelling, redness and heat when I have a day of 10,000+ steps. Also, I still sleep with a pillow for my knee some nights. The biggest problem that I have right now is finding shoes that work. I think I walked on the outside of my foot before surgery and now I walk on the inside. I live in a small town area with no access to a shoe store that will fit you properly. The bottom line is, things are much, much better than 1 year ago.
