3.5 months

After 3.5 months I am still in pain, don't sleep well, have trouble bending and straightening. Am I the only one? When will it end. When will I be pain free? Will I ever sleep in my bed again for longer than a couple of hours before returning to the recliner? I am so frustrated. Any words of wisdom / encouragement?

I am 14 weeks out...l am having horrible pain and swelling. Never thought it would be like this. I had to have Manipulation under Anesthesia because l could get my f look flexion above 85...l am now 105. I wish the swelling would get better. I just pray and believe it's going to be worth it.

I've had bilateral TKR on 17 April 2021 and now going for MUA this coming 31 July 2021 due to not being able to bend my knees above 70 degrees.
I'm wondering how you both are now especially after MUA. I'm very anxious about the outcome as it might not do much improvement. And does the bending, swelling, pain, and stiffness gets even better after how long?
