Thank you for your thoughts. I am 5 weeks out and knee is doing well. Numbness and tingling in foot is disturbing, but may end up having to live with it. I do plan to have a conversation with my surgeon and probably a neurologist. Happy you can continue your activities. I am working on being positive, thou difficult. But your reply helped! Thanks again

For what it's worth, my surgeon said I would be playing golf in three months after the TKR. I don't play golf but I got his point, he was very close, 4 or 5 months after the TKR you will be glad you had it. I have NO knee pain now and am able to walk and SLEEP well. Yes, the foot bottom is numb, but that is better than knee pain. 5 weeks out I had all kinds of serious pain, 5 months now I have none, so hold on, it's still very early for you.
