tazmocycle Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share #33 Posted September 22, 2009 thanks to all my family here! my legs really starting giving me trouble since i had my wreck in 05, they had hurt before but not bad enough to do anything serious. had planned to do it last year but didn't have disablty ins., so i put it off and starting first of '09 company started paying for it, so i figured it was a good time to go for it. got a good doc to do the operations and susan has known him for several year from the hospital she works at. he was a orth. doc in the army in first iraqi war and seen and worked on a lot of bad cases there. i'll keep ya'll posted as it goes along, thanks again, don. randy- that's the pic you took, turned out good.

Yammer Dan Posted September 23, 2009 Share #34 Posted September 23, 2009 Don the best therpy I have found is when they turn you loose to do anything go to the beach and play in the surf. The rougher it is the better. You will pay for it for a couple days. Keep happy pills handy but it helps more with the movement of the leg than anything I can find.

Poledar Posted September 24, 2009 Share #35 Posted September 24, 2009 All the best wishes and hopes that your surgeons are the best available AND on their game!! Do the rehab just like they tell you, + 10% and you will never regret it. I did both hips in 2007 and have never regretted it for a second. It got me back on a bike...nothing more needs be said.

tazmocycle Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share #36 Posted October 4, 2009 well, surgery went good. woke up with strecthing machine on and working. tues night got me up and took a couple of steps. wed woke up hurting a little hit the pain pump, afternoon they took off pain pump, pt found they had put boot on upside down and not on tabs to hold in place. after sitting up in chair a couple of hrs, got backin bed and they put strecther back on and started it up. something went wrong and it was almost lifting me up out of the bed. felt like it was tearing my body in two, susan got it stopped and several nurses came running in because the moniter had showed my ox2 level had gone into the 50s(thought i had thrown a blood clot). go some more pain pills for the pain, and got off to sleep. got out fri around noon and been doing ok since, have pt on mon at 2 pm see how they think i'm doing. i'm walking around pretty good.
