Our stories a lot alike in so many ways…. But I want to tell you there is hope…. My revision was amazing …. But understand I had wrong size in there so getting three times smaller I was able to bend right after surgery ….but yes you are getting tkr done all over …. But it was different I was prepared I knew what was going to happen …. I expected the worst but I was pleasantly surprised when pain was managed by meds …my new dr procedures were so much better … after waking from recovery you go to pt they have you walk and do steps I was amazed…..the nerve block they used worked this time the first tkr I woke up with severe pain so yes I was pleasantly surprised…..ice elevate a few days than 4 days out at pt … I also did mfr for the swelling never had much swelling due to 2 treatments a week…so if a dr finds something wrong with first tkr may be very helpful to have revision…. It is a lot of work just like first tkr difference is you retain what you work towards…. Good luck in whatever you chose to do ……if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you for posting! We think that is what is wrong with my tkr- wrong size. I e been in pain since 4/2017. Had fluid removed in November. Worth a try- but still in pain most of the time.
