I had everything but the sponge for my back....toilet seat, shower seat and my grabbit which was handiest thing ever but didn't get a sponge! Green cheese. They phoned me yesterday to say they won't take stuff back till April because that's how long hospital thought I would need them.

Five weeks in on Tuesday feeling not to bad but still a bit stiff, going out for walks still and doing my exercises mostly and icing.
Climbing up and down stairs very slowly and fancy giving this massage business a try.
Surely can't be long before I can have a bath. Oh for a bath.

When is your 6 week check? I'm sure I'll get the all clear at my next appt which will be 30 Mar. I'm banking on being able to get off this high 'throne' as well.....I'm desperate to lounge on my really comfy (but low) settee .

The Comhairle has a brilliant O.T. dept and everything was in place when I got back home. It's a glorious day today so the beach is calling for me and Archie (the dog). Archie came from Libberton, hope I've got the spelling right. He was nearly two when he came and he is the love of our lives! Apart from the kids of course. I just feel so good. Still a bit sore but nothing paracetamol won't sort. The Throne has gone but the cat likes the high seat!

Do you mean Liberton in Edinburgh Kildaliz, great to hear you were down the beach, I went down for a walk to the other side of the Inch today and sprayed some of my tiles out the back as I have had some work done as I am getting a small extension and they were all cement.
Got the son in law to do the heavy lifting though.

My neighbour is from Leith and when he called up yesterday to use my net (long story) he explained where Inch was. Friends of ours who live in Norway have bought a house in Musselborough, Iain loves his golf! Portobello looks like a nice place for a grandbairn. Our Samantha is 6 and is coming for her Easter holidyas on the 1st. Lovely chaos from then on. Off to the beach again at 11. Hope everyone has a good day.

Queer six weeks in on tuesday and I am starting to get a slightly sore knee nothing that causes me constant pain as I was down at Portseton today and also felt a bit of swelling just above my new hip.
Hopefully this will be me adjusting as well and everything will calm down soon.

Perhaps you've done a bit too much ? It seems to be quite tricky getting the balance right. Do the rest,ice,elevate and meds thing and hopefully you'll be back on track.
Won't be long before you are allowed back in your bath!!

6 weeks is early forbesy! Of course there is still swelling and aches and pains. You are getting more mobile and all the muscles and soft tissue are complaining. Ice when you can and allow time for rest between activities. You are doing well!
