Would Appreciate Some Good Thoughts
Since surgery my time outside has consisted mainly of trips to the doctor or PT. I have attempted a few trips in the back yard but the unlevel surface concerns me especially with Mardi's little dig holes hidden under leaves.
I'm not used to be "caged" in the house and I don't like it at all.
Yesterday, DH took me to the Exchange and Commissary. What a joy to be out! Got a little shopping done, restocked the frig and pantry, not that DH has not been doing this all along. By the time we were finished, I was finished too. DH was worried I did too much. Came home and rested a little and actually the hip felt more limber and very little discomfort.
Today is my 6 week post surgical checkup. Maybe, just maybe the doctor will give me the OK to drive. Oh, only if I could I could do short shopping trips at nonbusy times; certainly not this weekend. It would lift my spirits so much, just the thought of being let off leash. The key is probably going to be pain control which I am managing daily with just Tylenol only using the prescription med at night. Can't drive under the influence of the prescription pain med.
If you could spare a few good thoughts that the doctor deems me fit enough to be set free I would certainly appreciate it.
