It will be week 4 after posterior hip replacement. I am starting to use a cane more and more. Post-op is Thursday. I feel good but getting impatient to walk on my own and sleeping normally!

I know people who've gotten hip replacement and my best friend had one knee replaced.

 

Probably 2 years ago I had both knees replaced at the same time.

 

Not much to it.  I've endured do much back pain (4 broken vertebra) so the knee pain wasn't much.  I never used a walker and used the cane for 1 week.

 

You sound like you are doing good.  Thanks for letting us know how you are.  So many never come back and tell us how they're doing.

 

come back again and tell us when you've retired the cane.

 

Then come back and tell us when you get home from a dance😘. Just kidding,  it I don't think it will be long cause you are doing so well.  Take care.😬❤️
