Hi,
Today I am six months post op THR (Right). I have resumed most activities; I am better walking on the treadmill and riding my bike than going for a good long walk. I still use my cane from time to time. I mostly carry it; its like taking a pacifier from a baby. My OS did say the hip is still weak due to the fact I waited seven years to have the surgery. I was being treated for lower back pain only to find out later it was my hip. The x-ray only showed mild arthritis; once the femur bone was remove it revealed severe gross OA. If any of you are having this issue; be sure to get it checked out. The LLD I had is correcting itself. I am a happy camper. If the left hip need to be replaced I will do it in a heat beat it is so much better being pain free. I pray all who are waiting to have surgery and all who just had surgery God speed on your journey.
