Foot neuropathy (numbness and pain) after total knee replacement (TKR)

I specifically asked my surgeon what possible downsides that could happen after knee replacement, he said always chance of infection and a slight clicking in the knee, NOTHING about this numb foot and nerve damage. Now he says probably a back problem, ha ha. But the total bill for the THREE hours was over $180,000, they got 34K from the insurance and I am worse off then I was. What a system we have here, they say it's the best, hate to see the worst!

I had tkr a year ago and I am still numb in foot plus knee clicks with every step. I woke up with neuropathy in my foot and was told wii take up to a year to heal. Here we are a year later and still there. Ready to call a lawyer
