Pain!?

I’m now nearly 6wks after TKR. I am having really bad pain, but tomorrow I see my consultant for my 6 wk check. I can ask him questions then. But, I’m just wondering if others have felt such severe pain at this stage. I get pain when I sit down ( with feet up or down), pain all round knee. When I stand I have knee pain but also on outside of shin too. Is this normal? Bruising now all gone, swelling just the same. Just asking really for other’s experiences if anyone wouldn’t mind? Thanks - Jeanie

I just found this website and I am so glad I did. I too am feeling so frustrated at nine weeks out to still be having the kind of pain I do and sleepless nights. I have good range of motion and I’ve been doing all the therapy and I guess from what I’m reading maybe I’ve been doing too much but the nerve pain is very depressing. Definitely am regretting getting it done right now but I have a lot of hope after reading others who say it just took a lot more time. Thanks for sharing everyone and I will pray for anyone who’s going through this because it certainly is way more than I bargained for!
