2 years later and all good:)

Hi all,

Today makes 2 years since I had my operation total hip replacement

of my right hip.

Best thing I ever did, I was worried in the beginning about my

youngish age (46 now) but I need not of worried, all is great

I know rehab was hard tho(as I have always been unfit) not what I

was expecting..But in the end I got the results I was hoping for.

When my hip was playing up, I lost the quality of life I once had,

having had the op, I am now back to where I was years ago, I do some

things a bit different now tho, like when I pick something off the

ground I go to my knees rather than crouch, little things that help

me now.

About a year before my op, I went on holiday with my brother, we

stayed in the same room, he said all night long when I rolled over

in bed, I screamed out in pain, thats how bad it was..

I now work in a job where I am lifting all day long, and on my feet,

thankfully no pain, a bit stiff at times, but thats ok.

Good luck to u all, and have a merry xmas

Mark
