My surgery is tomorrow and it's encouraging to read you are doing so wellDay 11 update: Hi everyone! The last few days I have increasingly less pain and have managed to only take pain meds when I feel I need them (usually once a day before bed). I had my first physio session on Friday which was very gentle and I only did what I was comfortable with. The physio didn't push me either and told me to only do things that didn't hurt and to go at my own pace. I will be doing physio twice a week. I am noticing small improvements in the strength of my hip (I can now lift my knee towards my chest (of course no more than 90 degrees) which I hadn't been able to do for a year prior to my THR. I'm walking around the house without my crutches but still have my limp. I'm hoping this will go once I continue to stengthen and heal. I hope everyone is having a good week!
