Yep... I'm agreeing with the others. Take your pain meds. I took oxycodone for 9 weeks the first TKR and 5 weeks the second TKR. Some told me to try extra strength tylenol. It did nothing for me. I transitioned to Tramadol. At the end, I was just doing one before bed and one before PT - but it was terribly important to me to do my physical therapy and sleep. I don't know of anything more important during your recovery. Have you transitioned to anything after Percocet?

I’m back on meloxicam....I was taking it before surgery. Today was first time at PT on it......Advil worked much better to manage pain.....so I need to talk to Dr. Tylenol does nothing for pain for me.....
