    Just Wantin' Support As I Recover

    Left a day earlier than I'd planned to help my friend move into her new home due to some chaos with her movers and the truck arriving 2 days early. So the tennis will wait until I return home on the 29th. Serena can wait a bit longer. :hysterical:

    Just Wantin' Support As I Recover

    2 days of unpacking boxes, up and down stairs, carrying heavy TV's, reaching up, bending down, and my hip feels great. My feet and ankles ache like crazy, and my hip feels fabulous. Blessings abound!

    Just Wantin' Support As I Recover

    My wonderful hip will get a true test in the next few days as I am flying to Phoenix tomorrow to help a friend unpack boxes as she moves into a new house. The van arrived today, and I made them promise not to start until I get there. Their swimming pool will get lots of use between sweaty box...

    post op infection

    As others have said, with that kind of experience, I would look for a different OS and a different hospital.

    Other hip replaced!

    I hope you are snoozing deliciously, Catherine. Your positive experience with the second hip is a wonderful thing to read about. What great encouragement for all who face that journey. I'm curious where you are going in India. I've spent lots of time in the Himal, though much more in Nepal than...

    Smooth surgery for Sharon

    Way to go, Hippie Twin. Can't say I'm quite as pain free as you, and mine is definitely about activity and both PT and OS have said it's not a bad thing. Manage it with Tramadol and Ibuprofen, and on I go. Will hit some tennis balls for the first time on Sunday. Ain't it grand to be back in our...

    Revision THR Nanamac's story - Part 2

    Re: Thank you, thank you, thank you! Janet, you are indeed, in more ways than one, a Supremo. Like Sharon, I trust you to know what will be in your best interest. I hold the vision for the easiest, healthiest, shiny Janet kind of process and outcome. You give so much to us all. I hope you get...

    Home at last!!

    Welcome home, Loobylou. Glad to have you on this side. Surgery and meds do crazy things to how our bodies deal with metabolism and fluid. Weight readings have no meaning for a while, as Jaycey and Jamie said. It'll all settle down. Take good care of yourself, and I sure agree about not cutting...

    I made it

    Welcome home, Duane. The Bonesmart mantra: rest, ice, elevate, stay ahead of the pain. The only times I had problems were when I overdid, plain and simple. Sounds like since day 2 you're doing great. Keep checkin' in with us.

    It's definitely not my intention to leave. Too much good stuff here whether I need support or not. I'm happy to offer my support to give back what I have received. So much gratitude to you all.

    Just Wantin' Support As I Recover

    Saw my OS yesterday. He says I'm doing great, I'm really strong, and I'm cleared for the tennis court! Yippee! Will hit some balls this weekend. He agrees that groin pain will resolve over time. Tramadol and Ibuprofen are the tickets. Sharon, I'm sorry your stomach has revolted. I'm grateful for...

    I remember how great that first non-limping block felt! Fabulous, Nadine, and it will only get better.

    THR Just got back yesterday

    Just a taste for you to remember how your back feels when it's working well, which is exactly what it will be doing, more and more. Poli, poli - which is Swahili for slowly, slowly. This recovery thing is definitely a marathon rather than a sprint.

    Welcome to this other side, Duane. Fabulous that you made it. Hope the wiggles are increasing. Dave, thank heavens for resolution of numbness in the private parts!!! :th_heehee:

    Congrats, Roger. Great going. I'm just back from my PT appointment. He assures me, as all of you have, that the groin pain will resolve. In his opinion it's partly muscular and partly the average referred pain from the joint capsule being unused to the increased exercise. He says he sees it in...

    Terrific, Nadine. Sounds like the trip was a great one. Well done to handle your pain as well as you did. Glad it went so well for you.
