i am currently booked for a bilateral on 28th May although after reading some of the bilateral recovery threads I may get my right done first then my left as it becomes more problematic. It looks so so much harder than one at a time?!
I’ve an added complication of a drop foot on my left after spinal surgery in Nov 2016. I’ve a genetic neurological pressure palsy which wa# only discovered after I came around from the spinal fusion with only one working leg (although over time I’m just left with a drop foot). My surgeon suggested a bilateral as it would be hard to rehab using the left leg and they both need doing although only the right is really painful.
So I know I can manage pain and only one working leg! I’m also a yoga teacher so pretty fit and healthy although obviously restricted by my dis ability and my right hip pain/ restriction.
I’m a weird combination of scared and excited at the thought of a life without pain.
