I have walked few miles even in our dam sox
I have put on the dam sox myself
I have read an entire magazine without brain drain post op fog setting in
I have enjoyed wine although only a glass or 2 more than enough Right!!!

Hey Jo, RTHR July 27. Glad to hear your doing good with your recovery. Hip is feeling better daily, went back to work this last week. Mostly at desk or driving, was very tiring first few days. So yes let's celebrate what we can do again! Just getting off the crutches, not walking miles yet ! But can walk without discomfort just the last few days, and that is exciting. Walking the dog a little farther now, and made it around the market pain free today. Really nice to be pain free again, this hip just started giving problems maybe 5 month ago and got bad quickly. Feeling very lucky to be on the road to recovery! Dave
Hi im 40 years old I had my hip screw and plate taken out and had thr on 27th July I am now walking with 1 stick 2-3 miles a day and doing 4 miles twice a day on exercise bike and the doc has given me green light to drop them terrible stockings as I'm so active it's so nice to hear so many positive feedbacks well done everyone keep up the hard work πͺπͺ
That's brilliant dave well done I won't be back in work for a while as I'm a carpenter lol but I'm walking with 1 stick and doing 4 miles twice a day on exercise bike I also feel I can drive but been told I can't for 6 weeks because no insurance will cover you within that time some even longer after thr
