To Limp or Not to Limp. That is the question. My hip-tastic journey through the PAO universe. Thursday, March 27, 2008. MRI and CT Scan abound.or is that a joke?

I'll be having my MRI and CT scan in the Meridian Mark building next week. Suite 450. Got it. I will report accordingly. Friday, March 21, 2008. Back from L.A.oh la. Talking ...

To Limp or Not to Limp. That is the question. My hip-tastic journey through the PAO universe. Thursday, October 30, 2008. I'm FREE.and have transportable TEA! Well, it's been a long five weeks, but I am finally FREE of the Lovinox injections and the awful TED stockings. WOOHOO! Whilst doing the injections was not really so bad, the thought that I no longer have that looming over me each evening is a very pleasant one! Other things since my last post. I'm now on to knitting my 5th Scarf! It's insulated of...

So the weekend came and went without a ceremonial burning of the stockings.

This time last year I didn't know what was wrong with my hip. I know one things for sure, if and when...

We just returned from a fab trip to England to watch my brother get married to the wonderful Alex :) What a day, the weather held out and was just perfect, couldn't have asked for anything better, and the bride and groom both looked fantastic! So, now I'm back, the real countdown starts. Pre-op meeting with Dr. Schrader on Sept 9th. Tis all for now.

To Limp or Not to Limp. That is the question. My hip-tastic journey through the PAO universe. Saturday, May 17, 2008. So an update from yesterday. Scan Day. As planned we (me and hubby) showed up at Northside at 7.30am to get checked in and ready for the appointment at 8am. We sailed through main admissions, got my medical wristband and made our way down to the radiology department. We proceeded to wait. To which I replied "No". "Ok, no problem thanks". I return to my waiting position. A few minutes go by.

To Limp or Not to Limp. That is the question. My hip-tastic journey through the PAO universe. Tuesday, October 14, 2008. I've seen the screws.and they are BIG. So today was my first visit with Dr. Schrader since I left hospital. Jim and I trundled off there this morning, while mom and dad took a stroll up the road to the nearest mall area. Dr Schrader took a look at the incision (which I might add, only 1 steri-strip had fallen off to date) and swiftly proceeded to pull off ALL the steri-strips! I'm glad...

That's right, as of this morning, I have the official go ahead to start bearing weight, and to lose the left crutch.WOOOOHOOOOOOO - I'm JAZZED! Dr Schrader, after looking at the XRAY and prodding here and there told me all the things I wanted to hear:. A) I could drop to one crutch. B) The bone is fusing back together in all the right spots.
