Well guys, I had surgery today. The Dr said it was a great success. With how bad my hip was loaded with bone Spurs, he was baffled at how I functioned and told me that if I can deal with that pain, I will power through recovery with no problems. I completed the basic pt with no problems, eventhough I feel like a nerd with my walker.
Ill tell you what though: Day 1 is no joke. The pain is severe and I can barely move my leg because it’s so swollen. I’m hoping it gets better every day like the doctor said, but the best part is -NO stabbing, grinding, sharp pain from my diseased hip.
@chickenlady everyone gets scared. I’ve finally resigned to the fact that no one is perfect and sometimes we all need help. It finally took the dysfunction of my hip to finally outweigh the fear of having it done. I hope maybe reading that will help you.
and thank you to everyone who commented for your kind words. They really helped me a lot.
