I had my right hip done on January 19th of this year; I'm 64 years old. My surgeon was great. I spent 3 days in the hospital and 4 days in rehab. I'm going back to work (desk job) this coming Monday. The problem I've had since the surgery is sleeping. I used the pillows in the hospital, in rehab and am still sleeping (what sleep I get) with pillows under my legs. I've also only had 2 days since the surgery that I was able to walk normally. Most days I limp along; it's not pain-related, it's just that my right leg doesn't seem to be strong enough. I'm a little concerned with the walking as it's also hard for me to get started walking after sitting only 10 or 15 minutes. Does anyone have any advice as to what I can do to get a full night's sleep and, is it "normal" to still have trouble walking after almost 3 months?
