I am 9 months out. Things do get better however I still get soreness and stiffness. I recently went to Universal and walked 18,000 steps one day and wore a knee sleeve. Yes, that night I was sore for sure and I use Ben Gay and Tylenol for that. I am doing everything except getting up off the floor and steps are still slow but I can do them. I'm so tired of my leg/knee being so sore after doing anything. I'm told it does get better so know that as you continue it WILL get better. Perfect no, but better. I was told a year or longer for some people and I feel I'm one of those some people.

I was wondering how well a knee sleeve would work. I’ll have to get me one.
My coworker said it was about 2 years for her. And I believe it will be same for me also.
Thanks for all the info
