Re: I'm back already--I can't believe it!

Great news!! Lot's of good luck to you....make sure you do your P/T with and w/o the therapist....they will probably give you exercises to do on your own.

My sister had her second hip replacement a year ago this past September and is still doing great.

She had the surgery in the AM right around Labor Day....was hope that same afternoon....did her P/T and drove herself to a wedding on 9/28 and walked around all night with the assistance of a cane.

I hope your recovery is as seamless as hers was.

Best of luck!!!

That is wonderful that you are doing so well! Hip surgery sure has come a long way since my grandma had hip replacement surgery back in the 70's. God bless you!

Good for you! As long as you feel up to it...keep on challenging yourself. I've had this surgery too, and I surprised everyone by getting into better shape than I had been in before the surgery.

I'm not really sure why they were surprised...I was optimistic that I'd do well.

You'll be much better than you were before.
