I talked to my primary care about and he is requesting copies of everything for my file. I am supposed to see him on the 8th but I think I am going to request to see him sooner and ask for a doppler just to be sure there is no blood clots as well. This is my 3rd one and I have never had a problem with my foot. The surgeon said everything is in order and he said when they can't find out what is causing it they blame neurology. So they did an EMG and said it was normal but something they did made my toes stop tingling for a moment it came back with a vengeance. some times I can't put shoes or socks on. Once I settle down for the night it starts to contract and hurt so bad it's stays so sensitive that I can barely keep a sheet on it. Today is the first day that it has made me cry. cause I am stuck be tween the rock and the hard place.

Hello @wannie, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with @lacy2 and other members. There is another discussion where members are discussing conditions and symptoms similar to yours. You might want to read through the posts and learn what others have shared on problems after a knee replacement. It's good that your primary care doctor is requesting copies of everything done for your file. I would also keep a daily log of any new symptoms that might pop up and how you feel pain wise along with a list of questions for the doctor at your upcoming appointment. You can find some good information on how to plan your conversation with the doctor on The Patient Revolution website here: https://patientrevolution.org/visit-tools

Can you provide an update after your appointment?
