Hi there, welcome to the "Afters"!
The first few days really do pass in a blur don't they?! Glad you're feeling well enough to pop on here. These lovely guys were a godsend to me
(They still are actually) so any questions, worries, or if you just need a grumble, we're here for you.
Take care, be kind to yourself, hydrate plenty, and rest whenever you need to

Well done take your time rest and have treats this forum is amazing
Congratulations on the new knee AND being at home! Doesn't it make a difference? Your lovely positive attitude will also make a difference to your recovery, Lotty.
I'm 8 weeks post TKR, and yesterday I found myself clambering over chairs, having forgotten that one knee might not make it. Luckily it did, but the pleasure in having forgotten all about it for a time was brilliant!.
Keep up the excercises and get lots of rest. All the best from Denise in Oz.
