    Had 3 knee ops myself, tough to recover! But with the right physio things should be ok, just don't rush it

    Best of luck on your recovery! Three times is tough. Keep your head up.

    Emily, I had a total left knee replacement in October 2014. Naïvely, I expected to be "good as new" in 6 to 8 weeks. Almost 15 months later and two rounds of six week physical therapy sessions, my knee is still not where I want it to be. I go to the gym and ride an exercise bike 4 to 5 times a week which seems to be helping. Knees are much tougher to fully heal than I realized. Be patient and follow the doctor's orders. It sounds simple, I know, but is much more difficult than people realize.

    How is the recovery going now? I tore my patellar tendon and had surgery back in nov of 2015. Working hard to get back to sports and running!
