    THR Discomfort on Standing

    As I posted before, I am going to school which requires me to be on my feet for 4 hours. I was hired so far and will start working in a little over 6 weeks which will require standing for 8 hours at a time. I'm fine with it until I make the long drive home. My ankle swells up which I can feel...

    THR Discomfort on Standing

    I have to ask :) I am trying to get through this "dealer school". I'm not sure if it's me or it's the healing process. I find that I do good for a few days, lots and lots of procedures that are simple, but I keep forgetting. I'm exhausted on top of it and when I do wrong, I get very...

    THR Discomfort on Standing

    Vida, I hope you can heal and get better soon. I have had no real instruction from my Doctor, no physical therapy, nothing. I was told my physical therapy was to walk. I have gained some weight, which drives me mad, but other than that I think I'm on the same path to recovery. Paddles10,I have...

    THR Discomfort on Standing

    Josephine, thank you for your comment. I didn't know what to expect actually because everyone is different. I have been unable to work for almost a year and I'm trying to make it through this class. I have to get up at 4:30 AM and I get there at 7:30 AM. It's a long drive and I car pool. I...

    THR Discomfort on Standing

    I just started going to dealer school here in MD. I am standing for approximately 4 hours with 2 - 10 minute breaks. I'm fine once I'm standing, but I too, have that ache for a few minutes when I first get going. I also get really tired. I'm 13 weeks out. I did have an additional hip...

    THR Horseback Riding after Anterior THR? Anyone?

    I agree, he said some poses are extreme and you would run the risk of dislocation. Another factor in my recovery, another story altogether, but with major impact. I haven't worked for about 7 months and my husband was let go 12 days after my surgery, which meant not only loss of income, but...

    THR Horseback Riding after Anterior THR? Anyone?

    Wow, thank you all! I feel so welcomed, yes I do feel as if my stamina has been affected. That is exactly it! And my doctor said no yoga ever, it's because you can put yourself in extreme positions, but I did google it and there was an article or blog that a yoga instructor wrote that may be...

    THR Horseback Riding after Anterior THR? Anyone?

    Hello, Nice to meet you all!! I had an anterior approach THR on 10/22/2012. I had a hip arthroscopy in May that didn't work, so I spent my spring and summer on crutches. By the end of September the pain was unbearable and got a 2nd opinion with a doctor that came recommended by the athletic...
