Thank you for sharing such detail. I also still struggle with my rehab (Left TKR Jan 2023) and have have some people insert their opinion to just do the work. I was a college athlete and active until the TKR although modified activity for some things. I had pain before and pain now. I did three months of extensive prehab and have been doing at home exercises seven days a week (missed 2 days in 7 months because of family emergency) as well as going to PT three times a week. So many people look from outside and determine what your 'issue' is without knowing. Good for you that you finally have some relief and perhaps others in your position will be able to draw from your post to push to visit Mayo for scar tissue resolution. Good luck in your future rehab and carry on with the journey.

I hope you find resolution too. The previous 5 years were the worse of my life. I woke up from surgery 6 weeks ago and my life has completely changed. I had people who thought I was faking it, that’s the worse part, not to mention the depression that accompanies it. What I did not know all that time was that I could self refer myself to the Mayo Clinic, once I did -game changer. You know your body, follow your instincts!
