Guest guest Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 I had TKR 4 wks ago. At 19 days post-op, it was necessary to get myself to an appt. I called the OS to ask about restrictions or to get a release from him, whatever the procedure. I didn't want to be stopped by a cop & liable for violating a post-op rule. The OS's assistant said no rule really, just be careful. I admitted I'd be driving a 5 speed Dodge Dakota truck, using new-knee leg to clutch. She said okay. I found it easier to clutch & shift gears than some of my PT exercises, lol, so I've been driving ever since. Wondering how others handle this ?
