Yeah, I'm at day #10 here. I'm pretty comfortable during the day when not too active. Walking can be more or less comfortable depending on how close to the last pain pill it is. Nights, however, are a drag. I sleep 2-3 hours, wake, shift my 15 pillows around, sleep 2 more hours, wake, shift pillows, .... Fortunately my surgeon believes that the people who do best are the ones who take the pain medicine and keep the knee in motion. Also, I'm not trying to get off the pain meds to go back to a j*b.
One other word of advice. Miralax.
