Mine " clicks" as well Surgeon says thats just the way it is with some folks, others have no noise .
So best of luck and do the exercises for 12 months and you should be fine.
I cant kneel on it yet, even though its been 8 months, it still hurts.
Sorry if I'm a bit gloom and doom, but I expected better and so far its not delivered, I can run though

Sorry to hear about your ongoing issues Kieth. For some reason the success rate on these seems to be 85-90% without issues, and 10-15% with complications. Saw my physio today and although he was very impressed with my progress to date, he immediately gave me a bunch of revised exercises to work on for strengthening various leg muscles. I also walked 1.3 kms yesterday (still with crutches) without any dramas. It's sure nice to be free of the horrible bone-on-bone Arthritic pain I endured previously though!
