Hello everyone its jodilynn,i did it,and i even got sent home a day early,because i did what everyone told me and walk,walk,and walk more.I could clime stairs and get into a car ok so they sent me home they were all impressed,and i have all of you to thank,still haveing pain but not as must as i thought i has going to have,and im a huge wimp,when it comes to pain.Most of my pain was in my hips,and my neck for some reason is killing me but im iceing my neck and taken perks.So i have to say i think so far my knee replacement was worse,but i just wanted to say thank you for everything. im tired and going to go to bed in a comfortable one.

thanks again, jodilynn
 
Great news about your surgery and your recovery. I know it is always so good to get home even if you do get good care at the hospital. Just take it easy and don't overdo and keep up the walking. Your body has gone through a major surgery so give it time to heal.

Take care

So glad to hear your pain isn't so bad.
Just do what dr told you to do.
It's a long haul.
Welome home.
 
glad to hear everything is going good and i hope it stays that way. good luck further down the road.
 
Jodylynn, congratulations on your "Grand Opening." I'm so glad to hear everything went well. Your neck might be sore from the weird position they have to put you in on the OR table. That should pass soon. Remeraber, though, this is a long recovery. Don't rush it. Keep up the pain meRAB, and don't be alarmed if you have some days that are harder. That's normal. Keep up the walking, get lots of rest, and let us know how it's going.

If you have questions as you go along in your recovery, we'll do our best to help you.

Take care,
Emily :wave:
