Tracy 70. I literally feel your pain. I am now 8 weeks pst left TKR. It got to the point were I fantasized how an above knee amputation would get me out of pain. I agree with all the above comments. A good PT is invaluable. They worked 30 min. Yesterday to release the tight soft tissues that remained after 2 previous such sessions. They are reassuring me my progress is ahead of schedule. Not being able to sleep without waking multiple times is the most challenging still. I am 2 mos from 75 and cannot take NSAID’s. That leaves Tylenol. They did prescribed Tramadol for the first 4 weeks. For me Tramadol was minimally effective as 3 per day did not allow me to stay ahead of the pain. I did have a nerve block, but not robotic surgery. I have changed my mind about having the other knee done which the doc would have done first if my left hadn’t been so painful. Concern over opioid addiction has changed the one time thought that good pain control decreased recovery time. In closing I want to assure you it does get better. Connect Mayo has been so helpful to me, knowing I wasn’t alone or crazy. Please keep posting.
