TKR Feb 12, 2019, ABI Test in March, Angiogram in March and Artery surgery on April 10, 2019. I'm off the blood thinners now and am scheduled to meet with a neurologist to have an EMG to check for nerve damage. The vascular surgeon said since I had little to no blood flow to my lower leg and foot for 60 days I could have cell and tissue damage and it might not ever get totally better. My knee surgeon just said why did you wait 60 days to get it fixed, but still has not admitted he did anything wrong! Just keep advocating for yourself.
