Hello @karengail. Welcome to Connect. Oh my, oh my.......your experience sounds quite frightful. I am just 7 weeks out of my second TKR. This one has been relatively normal. I work daily on my exercises and have conquered stairs. I am now working on balance and stability to avoid buckling.
I wondered about the metal allergen issues but have mostly plastic in my Mako Robotic replacement plus a bit of titanium. I have great confidence in Mayo and know you will receive the best care available. Would you please share your Mayo experience with me? Knowledge is power and by sharing on Connect, many can benefit from your contribution.
May you be free, safe, and protected from inner and outer harm.
