Very quick 6 week surgeon meeting
Posted , 9 users are following.
Just had my 6 week meeting. No x ray, no manipulation. Handed in my crutches. Surgeon looked at the scar said it was fine. I can now drive providing I can do an emergency stop, bend and sleep on my side.
He said there would be a gradual recovery and that still having aches and pains was not unusual just to carry on doing the exercises and walking.
I don't have to go back unless I think something is wrong and I will be sent an xray appointment in 10 months.
It seemed a bit of an anticlimax as I was very nervous.
However I have freedom!
I'm not going to be silly though and still take things gradually.

Talk about anti-climax (in a good way I guess).

Your trust seem to be taking a lot of care if you have to have xrays every year. I think for my first one 15 years ago I had one at 6weeks and 1 at a year and that was it.

You may have filled in a form and not been aware. I was given mine in the form of a questionnaire at my pre op assessment. It is also a good place to look for surgeons as their activity and contributions are registered
Give it a search
Keep happy

Perhaps it is a way of tracking us down if we misbehave
Hope you are healing well
