I am 37 years old and had a malignant brain tumor. I have survived the tumor, but because of the anti-inflammatory steriods I had whenever I had a surgery or a recurrence, I developed AVN in my shoulders. After having my shoulders replaced, the AVN developed in my hips. We saved my left hip with a core decompression, but I had to have my right hip replaced in early May. I have recovered nicely and am exercising again. I meet with my doctor this week, which should be the appointment where hip precautions are lifted. I do not excel at any particular sport, but I love to exercise and work out almost every day. Now that my rehab is over, I've gone back to the gym and can ride the bike and walk on the treadmill. I want to get back into weight training and a number of different cardio activities. Of course, I will ask my doctor about exercise limitations when I see him, but does anyone have experience with getting back into exercise and how much are you able to do?
