    THR 2½ months post-up, now severe pain in mid Thigh<

    Hello @Josephine, trust you are enjoying a great day. Wanted to give you an update on my "mid thigh" pains, had my appointment this morning with my OS, I explained what happened with the PT treatment and subsequent pain.

    @Jaycey thank you for your message, yes I am now listening to my body. The PT was incredibly pushy and since my problem/pain started with her, I have let her go as she should have known better with me being 2 days weight bearing. Anyway I am following Josephine's advise as that is already...

    @DeepBreath thank you for your kind words, its appreciated. Yes I am now listening 100% to my body and doing what it tells me to do. Actually since I started to increase the icing time alone last night and today, it already made a difference. Have a great day!:flwrysmile:

    @Nana757 yes pretty unreal I thought and I actually did tell her, well "you do it and show me" that would have been without surgery, some people are in the wrong profession I think but it has all stopped now as I actually cancelled her completely, she was around 70 I guess and had been a PT for...

    @Josephine I should have mentioned that the exercises done with the PT were done in standing position, she had me hold on to my dresser or the kitchen counter for balance.

    Hi @Nana757, thank you so much for your reply, its appreciated. Its strange but this all started approx. 2 days after the surgeon said "you are now able to put weight" on your leg, my PT came in and had me do some wickedly painful exercises. I told her that I was only 2 days weight bearing but...

    THR Had my 5½ week checkup and can put weight on my leg

    Hi everyone, hope everyone is doing great. I had my 5.1/2 week check-up yesterday and while I was pretty nervous about the Xrays (as I am still having a lot of pain), I can now start putting weight on my leg so am no longer "non weight bearing", that's a huge relief. A couple more days using...

    @DeepBreath thank you for your reply, pain started somewhere in the midst of not having pain meds but its nasty but understandable considering what the body has been through, yes I ice it regularly (ice packs are my best friends...lol). Think I will sit a bit less to give it all a chance to...

    @sandiegomom thank you for your words of wisdom as they are appreciated. Yes for sure I count my blessings that I was not my 93 year old roommate as she was having a real tough time, had dementia (mostly at night), diabetes and other issues. My hubby and I tried to re-assure on a frequent...
