      Dear Linda

      That in itself should not preclude full weight bearing from day one as non cemented has been the norm for many years for hip surgeries and revisions. There must surely be another reason.

      Best wishes Richard

    Tiredness is normal, it's your body taking all the energy to repair itself from a huge operation.

    Best wishes
