Thank you for your response & kind offer. I’m sorry you’re having difficulty with sleep, but I understand as I am as well. I know many people who’ve had TKR this year, & most seem to be having difficulty getting a good night’s sleep. It does improve with time, I believe. I hope you regain your energy soon.

Don’t give up it does get better you just have to keep doing the foot work …. Like I mentioned I am year out of revision but I had my tkr year prior to revision dr put in 3 sizes to big I could not maintain any progress I would make I struggled for every degree , long story short went fort second opinion at I think 6 months out of tkr told me it was too big but honestly original dr told me it was my fault was not pushing hard enough , that my mind would not let me get through the pain my hip, headaches you name it he blamed it , but never once blamed himself for putting in wrong size……new dr scheduled surgery I had to wait the year I have to tell you what a wonderful experience ….. I was dreading it because. Knew the pain that was going to come and not end …. But woke from surgery no pain walked up steps the same day was amazing…. This recovery was so much better gain in flexion and extension I made I kept although I have only gotten to 100 flexion and off by 4 extension …. Before I was at flexion 65 extension don’t even remember my extension I know had tuff time walking ……I am telling you this is because it was hard I just keep exercising looked on this site …..I got a team on my side mfr therapist , an amazing chiropractor they helped me through all the rough times and still do …… I am always looking for new things to help with pain and stiffness because they will always be part of my life but I be damed if I will let it control my life …. I look for natural things I am not a take a pill for that like my tkr dr tried to do…. So don’t not give up keep on exercising And moving find a new dr get second third opinion , keep on looking for answers….
