Scary but I'm full weight bearing as tolerated!!
Posted , 11 users are following.
Well saw my dr was very happy with my X-rays!! None had grown into stem & cup!! He had me slowly put weight, no problem, walk, well it felt weird but was able to walk. 6 weeks does wreak havoc on all your muscles, nerves, ect..... Found out to he did move my gluteus max so am having pain there but he says all will get better with strength training. Foot problems will get better, sitting in wheelchair in one position has hindered my circulation. All in all I believe this was a good day! I'm still scared to put weight on this leg.....now a new chapter of walking again!! It was a hard but I did it!! Thank be to God!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 and thank you all for all your support, advice, tips and love!! You all are great! 🤗🤗

I had a long time off my left leg after an accident, before the hip replacement, so I can fully appreciate how weird it feels to use that leg again. The feeling does pass, but for me it lasted a few days.
As the Dr has said you can use it, don't be scared to use it. Just be mindful of your limits and if it hurts to much, take it slower. You aren't in a race with anyone, it is just about healing the right way for you.

Thank you!! I know. My brother said for me not to get over confident to take it easy! The best thing is no more wheelchair!!! Dr said to be aware of hip precautions. No BLT! After what I went through I plan to be careful. 🤓LD

Thanks Jo!! Yes it's a happy day!! Get that wheelchair outta here!!! I'm still a lil scared. But it's a blessing to me that I'm able to finally get around!! I know it's gonna be slow going but if I could do 6 weeks non weight bearing I can go slow with walking & therapy!! 😃😃. LD

After all you've been through, hearing this news is just so great!! Sounds like you've finally turned the corner on these hip problems. Stick with it and don't overdo it. You'll be fine in no time. Take care.

Thank you Patricia! Dr was happy that I followed his orders for these past 6 weeks and knows how hard it was but it did pay off! I cried like a baby these last few weeks almost every day several times a day!! But I've come this far and I know I'll be ok with lots of patience and caution. It was an experience to say the least!!
