Had left hip replacement 4 weeks ago. Feel a bit abandoned, sent out of hospital after 7 days with four exercises to do and an appt. for consultant in 12 weeks.
I have loads of questions which may sound a little silly.
I want to go back to work but this will involve standing for fairly long periods as I am nurse/midwife.
Also, will I ever be able to reach my feet, will I be able to paint my toenails, shave my legs, wear highheels, put socks on?
When can I sleep on my side?
When can I get in the bath.
Will I ever be able to sit on a normal chair/sofa.
When can I get rid of my raised toilet seat.
I know this is a lot but all these little things are worrying me, probably quite out of proportion.
Will continue to search the forum.
