I am going to have total hip replacement surgery, arterial style. I have an electric lift recliner now and would like to hear from others who may have had experience with this subject. Thank You in advance 😊

    I bought a recliner just before my previous hip op at vast expense. In fact I never actually use it as I prefer my usual easy chair. I know a lot of people do like them after their ops. I have heard warnings that they should not be used after a hip op, but that may just for the manual variety.
