    THR AllNat's 2nd THR (Lefty's Turn)

    Yay, all good progress. With the staples out you’ll be much more comfortable. Real advice and experience are far better than an app. Yay to Nancy too. Keep up the good recovery, and rest too.

    Revised PKR to TKR On the other side - AGAIN!

    Thanks @Layla yes to all of the above, chicken soup on in the slow cooker, plus hot elderberry drinks. You’re right it is that time of year. I missed a community event earlier today as definitely not intending to spread it as lots of elderly there. Here’s hoping. Have a great weekend everyone.

    Revised PKR to TKR On the other side - AGAIN!

    Fun day out yesterday at a Historic House, lots of these are only open from April to end of September. Next year will go back to explore more of the vast gardens. So 6k steps, including the one hours tour of the house, all fuelled by regular rests, aided by one crutch, good cuppas and scones...

    TKR First of two knees done

Some people suggested that 7 m was...

    @mastercookie hello and welcome. Have you a date for surgery yet? We can’t really give you a definitive answer about returning to work except to say it will happen when the hip is ready. Baking is a physical job and we all heal at different rates. Age is a factor, with every decade the healing...

    Revised PKR to TKR On the other side - AGAIN!

    Week 14. Seen the physio today. Patella tendonitis slowly improving, more laser treatment today, shockwave therapy on the Achilles tendon, and some other work done on the back. All likely to be from my altered gait, which probably hasn’t been right since February last year. Physio is pleased...
