Well that's me back from the shops, OMG! I'm in agony, my own fault did too much, but what if this is it for the rest of my life? god I hope not,, I mean I was fine went I went out, just walked round the store, and by the time I got back to the car I was in agony, still the drive home was good I put the heat/massage function on in my seat, I just hope when i get the other one done this pain will go and the other hip will stop complaining, or else what's the point? I want to be able to go out and walk around without having to be in pain, and I want to go on holiday and be able to dance, ahh well...just have to wait and see.
Remind show many weeks post op you are?
This is normal in recovery. Just listen to your body.And don't push too much activity.
Nearly 8 months post op. but going in for the other hip this month I hope.
I hope some day I hope to can see your country.
Oh 😟
Give it time Mrs, you can't do it all at once...... of course you'll be able to do all the things you want to do when you've had your other hip done. It won't be long now, but until then be careful and stop kicking yourself
Oh Lynne, do have faith - you will be good and do all the things you want to
I am sure getting the other hip done is bound to make a difference
Hang on in there girl!
How far do you need to drive, perhaps walk and drive was a little too much,
trouble is we feel fine, then just try to carry on as usual
be gentle with yourself
Well after a rest and a steak dinner, I'm not to bad now, I have just baked chocolate fudge brownies, now I'm sitting down with a glass of wine and watching twilight and Sheila, I have a 5 mile drive there and back.
good morning lynne ... I hope you had a good night sleep -
bummer, right ? you were feeling good and doing good and then WHAMMO , reality check - I hate when that happens ... you mention that your other hip needs THR as well ... I am facing the same ... which means to me that the way I walk is not balanced - unoperated hip/leg hurts more than operated one which I know I favor however is still recovering from trauma (15 weeks post-op) - maybe you don't feel it but it is still there (I think) ....
maybe it was just too much ... arghhh ... be patient - you are doing great - give yourself a pat on the back, have another glass of wine and relax (tonight) -
be gentle with your self -
warm hug
