To anyone that wants to listern- Hi all had my hip op on the 15th thats about 3 weeks ago the op was better than i expected- pain? sure the first few days but the pain i had was mostly in my foot! weird hey, i had trouble getting comfortable in bed so hard to move your body. in the mornings the sharp pains in my heel was dreadful and even on top of my foot. have pains down the leg from time to time but the worst part is this feeling of depression i have, i can cry at the drop of a hat i do have my family around me and they have been wonderful, but there in and out all day and a lot of time just looking at 4 walls. i have always loved tv but at the moment have no interest at all, theres just so much one can read.I just want the next few weeks to go by fast!im getting around on one crutch at home a little to scared to venture out on my own and yet i cant wait to be able to go to the shops.In 3 weeks time my daughter has the part of young dusty in the musical at her uni that will be first outing. how soon can you go out on your own?a few friends have called in but i just dont feel right in my self i wasnt expecting to feel like this at all.i sure hope it gets better anyone else feeling the same?
