Hi @two3 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I saw you were asking about your knee and wanted to connect you with other members going through very similar problems so I moved your post to this discussion: Debilitating pain after knee replacement: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/chronicdebilitating-pain-after-knee-replacement/ -----------
We also have members discussing the tight band feeling here:

How often are you going to PT for your issue?

For past two months, I've been going to PT twice a week working primarily on the IT band. However, without progress in this area, I am working with my PT specialist and a PT MD at Mayo in an attempt to define another path forward.
I have not found anyone on this forum that has the exact, specific symptoms that I have nor have the physicians I've worked with at Mayo indicate that they have seen my exact situation. The principal advice I have been given is to wait until the one year point and we will re-evaluate.
