until later. I hope not THAT much later. Because we usually sit there for at least 5 freaking hours to see him!
It is 9:08 and we have to leave to go over state line and be there at 10:30 to see my sugeon who did both of my hips. The left hip was done Oct.29.
This is is supposed to be my 3 week checkup but it is much closer to 4 1/2 weeks. My recovery times is 6 weeks.
I was walking on my left hip right after surgery because DH and kids were sick and was giving meds to the kids and got read the right act by the surgeon about it. I got X-Rays done Tuesday so he can see if I did any damage to see if Will lose my hip and have to get a hip replacement. I think I healed pretty well since I stayed off of it most of the time.
The surgeon said that these surgeries will last a minimum of 5 year and I WILL eventually have to have hip replacements in both of my hips when I get older.
I am just wondering if he will give me some more pain pills. I have been trying to wean myself off of the pain meds. I actually got tablets of percuset this time and last time I gotcapsules, so I couldn't cut the capsules in half .lol I used to take 2 tablets then went down to one tablet and now I am breaking pills in half but I don't know if I have enough to wean myself off. I read on this weaning site and it takes up to 6 weeks to wean myself off of them.
Anyway! Wish me luck!
