Morning:
49 year old male lifelong athlete / Left hip replaced anterior approach Jan 16, 2020. Happy New Year!
Pain has been minimal. 102.5-103.5 degree fever for approx first week (doc said was okay). Fever has subsided.
Walked 4,000 steps unassisted on Day 7.
Day 10, went to my gym and did (light) elliptical for 30 minutes followed by light recumbent bike. Somewhat soar that evening.
Doc says my hip will 'tell me' if I'm over-working it, and is quite pleased with my recovery thus far.
Am I pushing it too far too soon?
BTW: Sleep has been horriblle. I generally crash around 10pm, then up from 2am-5am, fall back to sleep until about 6:30am.
The only real discomfort that I feel is around my knee, and some cramping down my shin (neoprene compression sleeve seems to help)
Welcome any feedback!
