Good going !!!
I had the same experience with 2nd THR - I swear I was in much more pain than I remembered from 1st one - well, I was told that I just have forgotten ... tbh, I don't think so ...
happy to hear you are doing better - unbelievable to have 2 new hips, right - I finally feel that I am getting somewhere - doing too much and being too cocky according to my PT - slowing down now - he doesn't understand how it feels to be able to move without that OA pain - you are in for a treat ... still not a walk in the park, but oh, so much better -
big warm hug

I am glad you are doing well, I have read all your posts...Your experience in the Xray room was identical to mine...They wisked me off suddenly and I was in a state of undress, with only my night gown...I can see the funny side now, but not then...it's so hard to move about in the first few days, even to move in ben is difficult.
Anyway, it's all over now, have a quick a easy recovery...
The worst is over!
Big hugs

thanks for your comments. so funny you also got caught out in X ray too. The nurse said to me wouldn't be a problem not realising they were doing side view which requires an acrobatic manoeuvre and me trying to cover my dignity with my nightdress. anyway X rays confirmed on by surgeon today and go home tomorrow. Thanks a lot ...Maggie x
