July 26 had TKR on the left. So glad I found this group. I’ve been made to feel my continuing need for narcotic pain relief is unusual. As a result of only taking a Tramadol 50 when pain is a 9 I haven’t slept in two nights and couldn’t meet with my PT. I’m to get staples out in 2 days and hope the support from this thread will help me feel confident to request a Rx refill. All the best to my fellow travelers.

Hi, I had mine on the 26th too! Having this terrible band feeling. I go to PT 3 times a week, but have skipped a couple because of pain. I take a tramodol and 1 Tylenol together twice a day.. the pain is still pretty bad. Got some nerve damage, and tourniquet pain in my thigh still... do you have the steel band feeling? What's your flexion? I'm at 114, but it tightens back up after swelling. Still alot of pain.
