Total Knee Replacement: 10 Weeks In - Gail's Raw & Honest Recovery Story
See all the personal stories from Knee Replacement Warriors at • Post-TKR Discussions Join us as Gail, an avid pickleball player, shares her incredibly candid 10-week journey after Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery. Her knee pain, culminating in a meniscus tear from stepping on a curb, revealed no cartilage, a small fracture, and arthritis, making TKR necessary. Despite meticulous preparations – attending classes, diet changes, stocking her home – Gail found that all of the preparations...didn't describe anything about what it was going to be like in real life. If you're recovering from TKR, remember to cut yourself some slack, give yourself some grace, and understand that everyone heals differently.
