Wow...that's brilliant. ..fancy swapping bodies haha. I'm 15 days post op and I've been back to hospital twice. First one massive swelling and bruised from waist to toes skin was blistering it was bursting. Never felt pain like it in my life I've had my hip done too and I was great with that. I would love to know how you don't have any pain what's your secret

That's amazing, well done you!

I'm 12 days po! similar to you with what I'm doing!

I still feel a little scared of falling or moving badly and I think this holds me back a bit from doing more!

Keep it going 😃

Hello Moi,

All sounds good for you - well done,

At 18 days I'm very slightly ahead on the recovery curve, each of us taking it at our own pace.

I've got three floors so yes its a challenge! And also good exercise.

I've a step counting ap on my phone, which is useful as to progress, tho the crutches hitting ground before foot interfer with its counting seemingly in this very short term situation, its still good to know how I'm doing. My aim is to return crutches at 6 weeks.

Look forward to more updates!

Hi Moi

Its fast ...yes but dont over-do it. You'll not do any really damage but you will find you get sore if you do to much

Listen to your body and if yu are happy and confident with one stick go ahead

Is his inside or out?

I wouldnt chance outside with one stick just yet

Love
