Bummer Craig, I'm sorry. I've never heard of doing rehab at one year. I'd check with another surgeon and see if a redo is possible. I know you don't want that, but you should be able to easily do the things you describe after TKR.

FWIW my surgeon used the Mako robotic assistant. I got my legs in shape pre-surgery and did all the post-op exercises.

All the best to you.

Joe

Thanks Joe, appreciate your concern. I had a TKR on my knee done robotically about a year and a half ago. It is doing great. Revision of the first knee is a consideration but I have read that revisions of TKR’s do not come with the same degree of success. I am 75 so it is a consideration that will take more research and prayer. I have a revision of my rotator cuff and then we are concentrating next on why my wife’s TKR from 18 months ago makes a loud clicking noise.
