I’m curious how you are doing now? My mother had a knee replacement in November and she isn’t doing well. It doesn’t feel any better than before she had the surgery. She has been very disciplined in her post-op therapy and has done everything her doctors have told her to no avail. She is at her wits end.

Thanks for asking.
Doing well now.
Was an injury to one knee 20 yrs ago and a lot of torn cartilage removed after.
Joint gradually wore down to bone on bone and replaced it with the Mako model.
Slow recovery and it scarred up before I could regain full bending flexing so had to have it manually broken free again.
Feels great and I don’t think about it much.
