Hi
I am 9 weeks post op and am also struggling with fatigue. I keep being told it takes a long time to recover some longer than others. I also find myself laying down the majority of my day with small breaks for excercises in between. I hope you start to feel better soon. It sounds like you have good doctors that have been very thorough. I find bouts of depression too because all we want is to have our lives back and enjoy the activities we used to. Hopefully soon you will get there. Wishing you well 😊

Thanks for your reply, it’s helpful to know I’m not the only one experiencing this. I also am VERY depressed, particularly because my symptoms are not improving. Also, although my orthopedist says my knee is doing well, it is extremely stiff, and painful to walk, despite a good range of motion. I must admit, I regret doing the surgery.
