I think you are both wrong. Recovery after a TKR varies widely and is similar to what is shown on a bell curve. There are a few outliers on both ends and most folks end up in the middle. Revisions follow a similar pattern.

There are outliers on the no pain end and outliers on the very painful end with most somewhere between those ends. Forums such as this tend to have more negative reports because that is what tended to drive them here. Both are individually legitimate but don't necessarily mean they apply to everyone.
