Hi all!
I'm at 5 months and I'm finally off my cane, walking and doing stairs "the normal way." It feels really good to be moving around and productive again.
I'm more of a tortoise with my recovery, but I actually don't mind. I have low bone density and I just refuse to rush things or feel bad that it's taken a little longer. I even slowed things down further than Dr Gross suggested, and I think it's worked well for me personally. Just wanting to make sure my green bone is nice and solid.
I actually don't have much pain, just that "startup pain" in the outer thigh for the first few steps after I get up from sitting for a while. My thigh is pretty mushy,
, but it seems to be a little tighter every day.
So nice that even after a day of walking around, that old hip crease arthritis pinching is completely gone. Ahhhhh!
I kinda miss my cane a little. It was pink with rhinestones. Saving it just in case the left hip goes later on.
Hope everyone is doing well!
