Thanks for posting this, I would like to connect with anyone going through this. I am still working part time, wearing a brace to help with the loose hardware. It does hurt, I take Tylenol or ibuprofen. I have read 1:5 are not happy with their TKR, but I am an outlier with these allergies.

@denver I have actually heard that 30% are not happy with their TKR. Had I known that before my TKRs I may not have had them. Actually the first was very necessary. I was limping very badly and in pain 24/7. I worked on the supporting muscles before my second TKR though and I could have managed without it but I knew I would need one eventually so I went ahead and had it done, and I am one of the large percentage who are very happy with their TKRs, more my second one than my first.
