THR thr recovery

[Klassy]

Happy 3 month anniversary @Giddsy1 . I hope you are going from strength to strength.

 

[Giddsy1]

Thanks Klassy.

That's a coincidence I was just goner put an update. (great minds think alike as they say lol).
I hope its all good in the Midlands.

Yes 3 months since lthr, all going good been back to work for 4 weeks, last 2 weeks full time, and back to my normal job.

It's great to be back in work after being off recovering for 8 weeks. Hip feeling good and getting stronger every day. I am back lifting and fitting and it's all going good. Mobility is really good and I can walk all day. I am still being cautious though and not doing anything silly. (This new hip got to last me another 30/40 years.

I am not taking any pain meds even after 10 hour shift, and haven't been having any soreness or aching, only a little fatigued as you would be after having 8 weeks off. I do watch the weather as a scary thing for me is rain, I am still concerned about slipping, and I am extra cautious in wet conditions. This is my only big concern.

So the summery is back to working 50 hour weeks.

Hardly any pain.

sleeping soundly 8hrs a night.

Life getting fully back to normal prior to hip pain 5 years ago.

So all in all feeling good, though still being cautious and remembering not to overdo it.

I hope all my bonesmart buddies are all doing good.

Great update! You are a model hipster.

We need rain in our bit of the midlands, so I will ask the weather people to please let the clouds bypass your part of Wales and come directly here.

I am doing fairly well thanks. Babying my hip at the moment to make sure it is fit to celebrate my month 4 anniversary at the end of the week.

 

[Giddsy1]

Thanks Klassy.

Mind them weather forecasters sometimes get it wrong. lol.

Glad your doing well.

That Cockopoo is calling you woof woof. lol.

I certainly had some niggles at six months out but things will keep getting better and better up to... and over a year, in my case.

[Giddsy1]

thanks mojo333 and polarice. Time flies when we're having fun. quality of life much better with new hip.

 

[CricketHip]

Congratulations on your stellar recovery, you have done so well!

Isn't it just the best feeling to have the surgery and most of the recovery over with?
I found that my increasing activities and return to work still required some icing and hopefully you do this if or whenever you might feel a bit overtired or strained in that new hip.

So pleased for you!

 

[Giddsy1]

Thanks Crickethip hope your good too.

 

[Snoopy55]

Wow so happy for you! I'm feeling pretty good too! Like you said some soreness here and there especially when I drive or do too many errands but nothing some good ol ice won't fix! Best wishes for you.
