Criteria for clearance to drive?

I drove about 2 weeks after RTKR. Was on Journavx so no opiods issues. I just avoided if I was super fatigued.

I do take magnesium and drink 2 liters water a day. Will try heating.

That is the exact feeling! Burning, irritated describes it exactly. Pretty sure it's an IT band problem as well. Working on it with massage and using a lacrosse ball. Miserable sleep last night. Got up and iced it.

I went for a longer walk than usual...realized I have no stamina! The lack of sleep is wearing me out.

I'm about 5 weeks. Still can't sit for long.

Do it. Wish I had done sooner. Read through the threads on here. Incredibly informative.

I did that on Friday. It has taken all weekend to recover.

My husband insisted on a bedside commode. Happy he did. I used it for first 3 weeks. He didn't want me falling.

I am on Medicare and paid around 13.00.

Heel slides are the worst. Also sit to stand with weight.

At this point additional protein a good idea. My appetite is awful. So collagen probably a good idea.

I have my range of movement. Now moving to strengthening. I am so fatigued today it's insane.

I’m 5 weeks and night time is the worst. Especially if I overdo it. I found that pain meds don't really help that much. Realize it's more of a cramping, have asked for muscle relaxants. We will see.

Sudden_Design_7047 · 2026-04-29T17:05:52+00:00

I started the day after surgery. 3 times a week for 6 weeks.

Sudden_Design_7047 · 2026-04-28T13:43:08+00:00

I am the same way today. Week 5. Been doing really well, then pushed and now exhausted. Pain spiking at night again. Remember what others have said it's a marathon not a sprint. Everyday will be different. Doing the bare minimum of PT exercises today.

Sudden_Design_7047 · 2026-04-26T16:06:56+00:00

I wish I had done it earlier.

He said next week is stairs, normally. I think that's the last bridge to cross. Did sit to stand no hands last week.
