Day 38
I woke up without too much pain. I went out back and was trying to shuffle wood around and saw a gas can open.  I grabbed it to close it off and started to slide so I put out my crutch but I think it was on leaves and soft ground so I slowly tilted to my left uninvolved leg and slowly went down as there was nothing to stop my progress.  I popped back up but.....If I do this enough the odds are that I will eventually hurt myself.
I will gauge how much it is bothered as the day goes on and decrease or maintain my safe activity level.  There is so much to do around here and I want to do.  What I have to realize is this is my hip's last chance to do what I want to be able to do.  My fiancée is mad...again because of my behavior..  .  I took 3 "walks" with crutches today. The side does not feel good but who knows what is normal with this.  I attempted LAQ with 4 lbs and that was pushing it so maybe 3 lbs next.  I did some functional HSC using the recliner and that didn't hurt.  I did these after falling which did NOT hurt at the time.  After the exercises the leg did not feel right , like something was in the wrong place and the front, side, and back felt uncomfortable.  With time it hurts still b ut only if the leg is not perfectly straight ahead.
I shall focus on walking instead of working in the yard.  I think the pain pill made me a little grouchy but hey, maybe it is just me.
