My bend is nearly at 90 degrees. Unfortunately, I feel the wire poke into me (at tibia end of PT) at 90 degrees and also when I bend the knee while walking. It's pretty uncomfortable so I'm not sure I'll be able to bend past 90 until the wire comes out at 6 months.Today I did my first straight leg raise (with 5 degree lag). Once again it was not strong at all but it was a good feeling to hit another milestone.Still nowhere near being able to extend the leg from a 90 degree bend.My wire only started hurting after I saw my surgeon and I don't see him for another 6 weeks. Have any of you had trouble with the wire? When did you have the wire out? When you had the wire out, was your recovery affected at all? Kath
