Days 59 and 60
I have been attempting to walk with the cane more and increase tolerance to standing. I was on my feet a few hours in a row yesterday and my buttock was hurting enough to necessitate taking 1/2 pain pill. It still hurts this morning as does the pain from lifting the leg against gravity.
I need to start trying to strengthen the hip ER as they were cut through during surgery.
All this may be par for the course and may not be unexpected or unusual for this surgery rehabilitation.
I am still driving short distances and am still using the cushion to sit. I am trying to go up steps 1 after the other using the cane. I can not do it with out yet.
My limitations are less but the residual ones are harder to abolish and are taking more work
My work situation is concerning me as there is no way I could return to what I was doing at this point but that is in the future and I just have to deal with today doing the best that I can.
