Ok, one week post op now. Everything still going well. Able to put more weight on the left leg now. Still using the walker per the home PT but I think that will be changing soon. Only pain now is muscle pain, but in a good way. Those of you that lift weights will know of what I speak. It's the pain you get a day or so after you worked out too much, muscle soreness in a nut shell. The compression and cooling machine is awesome!  I think it's making the recovery process much faster. Had to go to the Doctor Monday to get the dressing changed as it was soaked. Dr said the incision looked good with no active drainage. My first official follow up is tomorrow. All in all, pretty happy one week out. Definitely welcome the muscle soreness pain vs the OA pain.  Can't wait til out patient PT when I will get some ROM back and get back to walking again.

Great to hear everything is good. Once you are fully unplugged thats when you will feel totally human. My drains were taken out really early before the epidural wore off.

Joe, Thanks for your updates.  I am headed in for my right hip resurfacing this Wednesday (11/7) with Dr. Mont in Baltimore, MD.  As I mentioned to Pat a few weeks back in an email, this website has been a great source of information and has really made me more comfortable with my upcoming surgery.  I am headed down to Maryland from the Philadelphia area.  When I saw the experience that Dr. Mont has and only being an hour and a half away it was a no brainer.  I will try to post some updates after the surgery because there hasn't been a lot of recent posts from Dr. Mont's patients.  Scott
