Well, it’s been several days walking unaided and I’m doing ok. Sore and limping a bit but ok. Of course I still use the walker when out, or a shopping trolley.
My biggest challenge now is to get rid of the loo seat raiser. I have been trying our other loo in the laundry room and it’s very painful getting on and off a lower seat. As we go away on 11th May I need to be able to use a normal loo; definitely not taking the seat raiser with me!
I’m still doing quad sets, step ups and cycling ( only in short bursts) but is there anything else I can be doing to make the transition to a normal loo any easier? I did have this issue with my first tkr but I wasn’t in any hurry as we weren’t going away.
