My wife is 4 weeks post op on her second TKR. We knew what to expect having done the first one in July, but it's tough.

Wife's first was probably 3 months to pain free (though it was hard to tell because the other knee still hurt so much). We're hopeful to get back to going for walks sometime after the new year.
