Knee-plus-ten-months: my TKR is still going strong
It's been more than ten months since my TKR.
I work about 3 miles from home. I can walk it (but I do limit this to good weather).
I can ride a bicycle comfortably. Longest bike rides have been in the 5 mile range. Uphill is not a problem. Standing is not a problem.
I can and do kneel regularly.
I am once again actively gardening. I mow the lawn weekly. I use a big ol' rototiller. I rake and hoe. I kneel. I squat. Yes, I still tend to sit cross-legged to weed or plant. I can straddle my 3 to 4 ft wide garden beds to weed, seed, plant, harvest.
And we're planning a vacation in which we plan to hike up a 14,000 ft mountain in Colorado. With luck, I'll have pictures by the eleventh month anniversary.
I know how lucky and blessed I am to have had such a positive TKR experience. But I absolutely love it!
