Hi JK:
I did have MUA. I also have always done the advised excises at home. I am still lacking the expected flexion for a 4 month post op TKR. However, I am improving very slowly. I am at 110 degrees now.
Happy to hear you can kneel with support.
Keep improving.

@dismaydee Thanks, but I had my second TKR in October, 2017. I doubt it will improve at this point.

There is a procedure that can be done to improve flex but it would require PT again, the whole 9 yards and I'm not willing to do that. It would be nice to be able to kneel without holding on so I don't fall forward but it is what it is.
