what can and cant i do?
Posted , 7 users are following.
So far iv noticed that after my op my left leg still doesnt bed the way its meant to which is highly annoying but iv lived with it all my life and can continue to live with that issue.
My main question is what things in life may i not be allowed to do? Would i be able to go horse riding, do gymnastics, go on rides and other things that are hugh inmpact on bones.
My other thought is considering im only 20 I do from time to time go clubbing although obviously havent for a long time due to the pain. But what would happen if i had a few to many and were to fall, am i going to become paranoid about having nights and become even more antisocial?

As for the drinking, my son has gone out with friends both in MidWest & while he was here. I just had to trust his judgement that he would be okay. And he was.
I don't think you are antisocial, Sarah. Hopefully you can find things in common with others - like music.
Aloha, Soos

Sometimes son pushes himself to do the socializing part as he feels it's what's expected or will learn more & unfortunately he's often been right. He says there was a lot more drinking after the conference sessions & back in the MidWest after workshops & writing groups than he took part in. And when he did, he paid the price in exhaustion even the following day.
Even for you, Sarah, it will be a choice to decide if it's too much.
Aloha, Soos

Sarah, your case is unique, and you need to know the boundaries that you can safely go to, after all you are going to have these artificial hips for longer than most of us.

I fell on my THR (left hip) while playing hockey and I was fine. Â I was told not to play league hockey due to contact. I am much older than you.
I dont even think about my THR, pretty soon, I will have the other one done soon.
Good Luck, you will be fine !!
