I can...
Drive

have a bath
have a tattoo
go work ( not going though until 1st September)
swim breaststroke ( no medical evidence that it's bad for hip unless I'm an Olympic breaststroke swimmer and bend knees to my chest and legs at 90 degrees)
my penguin waddle will go with more walking
happy bunny I am!!
Before and after pictures below!
Next appointment 3 months!

Brilliant!
Sounds great...what tattoo do you plan to get? Mic x
X-rays look good. Just came back from my 6 week appointment myself and all you have said I was told also. Really great we are oceans apart and have the same x-rays and same instructions. Really amazing isn't it? I need a lot of work on my walk though as it has been years since I walked correctly. So glad you wrote as it is encouragement for many still in the first few weeks that feel as if this could go on forever.
Whoop whoop!!! Well done you!!

Hi Linzi
I am impressed! I am 5 weeks and am back at the hospital on 17th; I am hoping to get the result you got today. There are so many bits of different advice from different consultants that I am praying mine will be like yours!
Nice pix BTW 
Well, I've over 40 tats, I've got three planned, an extension on one I've already got which are hibiscus flowers, a Hamsa (eye tat in a hand) protection is the meaning, and one for my hip, artificial joint in Latin and the date of my op in Roman numerals.

Oh and I forgot to mention, airports! Yes I could set the detectors off, they don't issue cards now as airport security goes up and down with any terrorist threat! So I need to inform them I have a hip implant and they may or may not search me,
airports can adjust the sensitivity of the detectors...
Fantastic Linzi! Really pleased for you. I know how you feel 
You can get on with everything!
Great pics. Here's mine .....

Whoop whoop Linzi 😁
Cool tattoo ideas, am thinking of getting them done as well, with the addition of 'No. 1' and 'No. 2'
Not sure yet about the numerals or dates, but something will go there 😉
Had a tattoo done in Bali as well, day before we left. Had been itching to get another one done for years, this was the time for it!
Can't help but notice the piercing in the 'before' pic though, didn't they harass you to get rid of it? They did me..
Hi what a fantastic positive reaction,I wish I was the same,you are a great example to all,keep it going,Love Michael.
Wonderful news! I am so happy for you...

I had to put a plastic retainer in my belly button piercing, I bet that was an experience to get tattooed in Bali! X
