@contentandwell I'm still in severe pain on most days 10 weeks PO. I envy you having an ortho who keeps a close eye on you. Mine saw me 1 and 2 weeks PO and then 6 weeks after that. He examined my knee and told me to continue PT and he would see me in 3 months.

@dkapustin I really have to say, he was great. He really kept on top of things when I was in pain. I think he was as relieved as I was when the pain lifted. This was my second TKR. The doctor I had for the first one was not nearly as attentive, but then I wasn't in as much pain either. Ironically, that one hurts now after exercise, the one that had more pain initially very rarely hurts at all. The second one is a custom made knee, the Conformis, and my doctor was one of the developers of that knee.
