Grizz, Where are you? I want to know also, how are you doing? I remember you kicking it with me about your hip surgery.

Re: Grizz.
Hey guys, Didn't see this thread until now or I would have replied. Thanks.
I'm actually feeling really good now. Day of the surgery (Monday) and Tuesday were rough, but I'm recovering by leaps and bounds. Did two 2.5 mile walks today, albeit extremely slow. Some pain, but not too bad. The big issue is range of motion, but that should come back a bit every day and be back to acceptable in a week or two. Thanks again.

Right now it hurts me to walk a half mile. I am lucky to play 5 games of singles in shuffleboard without my hip talking to me.

I have a little limp left (it's only 5 days after the surgery) but I can walk pretty good now, albeit slow. Speed is coming back a little bit every day, and each day there is a little less discomfort. I'm still taking a bit of percocet but down a fair bit in the last few days.
Big issue now is range of motion in the hip. It still really blows although that is improving a little bit every day too. Hopefully in a couple of weeks, that will be close to normal.
I highly recommend it Stars. A little pain (the first day especially, and the second day also sucked pretty good) but for the long term gain of no pain and full range of motion again...

Glad to hear you are doing well. Range of motion will come in time. This will no doubt be a must.

Re: Grizz.
Did you get a hip replacement, or was it some other kind of procedure (resurfacing)?vcsgrizzfan wrote:Da Stars. wrote:vcsgrizzfan wrote:Hey guys, Didn't see this thread until now or I would have replied. Thanks.

That made me chuckle.
I actually used one of those the day after the surgery around the hospital. Now THAT makes you feel old.

Re: Grizz.
It's a total replacement, but it uses a new technique called "Superpath" if you ever google it. It works without cutting muscle and without dislocating the hip. It takes a fair bit longer to perform the surgery, but recovery is much quicker and the risk of future dislocation is dramatically reduced.steveo wrote:Did you get a hip replacement, or was it some other kind of procedure (resurfacing)?vcsgrizzfan wrote:Da Stars. wrote:

Re: Grizz.
Hi grizzy and I'm happy that you are doing well...
Re: Grizz.
I quickly googled it. That sounds pretty good compared to the traditional procedures. Best of luck on your rehab!vcsgrizzfan wrote:It's a total replacement, but it uses a new technique called "Superpath" if you ever google it.
