Don’t do it til you are using a cane, walker or wheelchair cuz pain is so bad. I had bone on bone too but could bend to 150 degrees. Had TKR & can only bend to 105 now. Regret TKR.

Hi @ivy7656, Welcome to Connect. I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with your TKR. I couldn't live with the daily pain and now I don't have any pain but I'm limited in not being able to get on my knees for any kind of task around the house or yard.

Do you mind sharing what brought you to Connect? Were you trying to find an answer to a question?
