THR Recovery begins-UK

[SurreyGirl]

Pretty well thanks Hattie! Still get stiffness but have to remind myself that the op was less than a year ago. Full time work, driving and a pretty active life so all good. Probably 80% back to normal and walking without a stick for the first time in three years. Still need it for longer distances but such a difference.


Hope you get your op in May and you won’t need to worry about putting socks on either!

I had a call from the hospital the operation is cancelled for Monday because of emergency cases. I will need to wait another month at least they say as my OS has some holiday coming up

I'm so sorry! What a disappointment. Thankfully you don't have to wait too horribly long. We're here for you. Wishing you comfort as you await May 25th.

Thank you for the change of date details. I've asked for you to be added to the May Marvels group.

 

[Mojo333]

So sorry...just catching up.
A delay...were you sad or kind of glad?
Hang in there friend!

 

[Hattiecat]

First THR I was glad when the operation was delayed but this time I just want it over with. Still nervous though.

 

[bickypeg]

I was too even though the first went so smoothly. Strange isn't it? But a great time in late May/early June to be convalescing. No need for socks, shoes or unnecessary undergarments!

 

[Hattiecat]

I agree, operation has been put back yet again new date is 28 May now.

 

[Mojo333]

Oh my stars...are you sure you can make it? You should tell them you already had planned for a vacation on that date.
Will get it changed for you.
Hope all is well with you!

 

[Layla]

Aww, so sorry.
Wishing you comfort and peace of mind as you await your new date.

[Mojo333]

[Hattiecat]

Thanks for all your messages. Operation went ahead as planned and I came home yesterday. Lost lots of blood, sore and tired but really pleased to be on the other side. This time had a GA and no problems, better meducated with a PCP ? Morphine pump. The pills are giving me terrible dreams though, did anyone else face this ?

 

[Mojo333]

I didn't get one of those pumps @Hattiecat
I'm really glad you are home.
It's a lot we go through to get happy hips again.
Sending healing hugs!
