Good Morning @luvndasun Welcome to Connect. I am troubled by your first post about a knee replacement that hasn’t behaved the way you imagined. I am 3 months out from my second TKR and have been recovering well. I need a bit more information about your pain and discomfort. Is it in the surgery area or the muscle and tissue around the knee. Were you given pain medication for recovery? And my last question, how did you do in physical therapy? Oops…I have one more. Have you been able to do stretch and stability exercises at home?
You deserve better than constant pain. And Connect’s mission is to improve the quality of life for every member. I look forward to your response. How are you managing to sleep?
May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris

I did physical therapy, the Dr. Said I did great was farther along than a lot of his patients. I kept telling him my knee felt like it had a tight band around it and it burns like it's on fire all the time. And so much worse standing or walking. It's around the entire top and sides of my knee. I'm in pain 24/7 pain meds don't work, CBD oil with THC doesn't work. I have a spinal stimulator for my back they adjusted it said that should help nothing again. I've tried everything. Been to my Dr. Twice more and another opinion they say my knee looks fine. I don't care how it looks I care how it feels going on 19 months now with no relief
