Posted by weaser1993 @weaser1993, May 9 1:11pm

I’m 8 weeks post op TKR, and I was just inquiring if it’s normal to be exhausted still and just not feeling like myself yet ? This is my second TKR and don’t remember feeling so tired for so long. Katrina

I am at 14 weeks and starting to feel like myself today. Still pain and swelling but sleeping much better so fatigue is slowly fading

It is very normal to feel tired in the first few months. I’m 1 year out and I still get tired some days. It’s a very tough surgery to go through but we all will get there! Hang on and stay positive!

I’m almost 2 weeks out from TKR, & exhausted, as well as dizzy most of the time. Unfortunately I also have a large blood clot in my anterior thigh, which makes knee flexion extremely painful. Has anyone else experienced a blood clot in their thigh muscle after TKR?.
