I had my 4/5 week post-op visit today! I got my x-rays done today!
The first image I included the lines where I was cut in red.
They aren't to scale but I wanted to show where I was cut. The bone is
healing very nicely and quickly! The 2nd image is just my hip with the
screws. The screws are HUGE - he said he did go bigger than normal
with me. (Stupidly, I didn't ask why but I had a list of ?'s and I wasn't
wasting anytimejavascript:void(0) and I told him to wait I had a big list for him!)
1.I start Physical Therapy on Friday 3 times a week.
2. I can add 20 lbs a week to my operative leg.
3. I will still have 6 more weeks of crutches.
4. I can start driving a bit - only short distances for a while
5. I need to start swim therapy and riding a stationary bike (He was
very insistent about this! I need to get a gym membership!)
I go back in a month for another set of x-rays and checking my
healing! I wanted to keep everyone updated. Thanks for your prayers
and continued support!
