Title: 5days post op doing fabulous!
Post by: Sherri on June 19, 2010, 09:27:05 PM
 ;)Well today is Saturday and another glorious day with the new hip. Got up earlier than normal kinda kinked in the groin, no big deal went downstairs to the recliner and slept for another 2hours! I'm well rested well hydrated and eating nice. Only took 600 mg of motrin today, headache gone finally. The visiting nurse told me the headache was a spinal headache ugh, now that Sucked I'm not going to lie, now it's gone thank God! I guess it's better to have a headache than risk 'going under general'. My day was so nice I ditched the walker when doing stairs, it's too hard it's so much easier to just do them the way my PT taught me! I use the walker all day walking around the yard and in the kitchen, my mom is here so I'm relieved of my cooking  ;D I can now get up from my chairs unassisted and my muscles are coming back f a s t :D. I'm so happy  little bit of swelling icing the leg in intervals throughout the day, doing my exercises and now I'm planning all the new sports like golf lessons that I want to partake in! It's party time!  :o
