I had TPO (or PAO) with dislocation (to smooth my femur head back into a rounder shape), so the scar is smaller on my bum. If/when Mr.O takes the hardware out he goes through the same site and I can tell you it doesn't take a fraction of time to heal from that compared to the TPO. I was still using 1 crutch 9mths post-TPO so don't worry that you're not healing fast enough or something - plus you've had 2 for 1! DVT can't be helping. I'm still injecting the clexane right now, can't wait to be done with that. <br /><br />I'm seeing the big kahoona in just over a week, I bet he asks me why am still using 1 crutch! I'm a bit of a liability without a crutch right now - walked into door frame the other day walking unaided!! <br /><br />Take care and keep walking!

My blog is at http://debbiehipster.blogspot.com/ our stories are so similar, had to comment. Hope your healing well xxDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08467997387728219425noreply@blogger.com
