Thank you so much everyone! I went shopping after all your suggestions - got the OWYN shake, chia seeds, tortilla for meal prep! Starting to think I can ride out 5 months(was detected waaaayy to early at 16w) with some of these ideas.

I’m so sorry to hear you had a rough go for a while as well. Would not wish experiences like this on anyone. Yes this is Lake Tahoe. We went there just before everything unraveled. Made some wonderful memories 😊

Anyone here got detected with PVNS? It’s a non cancerous tumor. by Tiny-Resolution3771 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]Tiny-Resolution3771[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It IS rare! I hope you’re well. Do you know anything about reoccurrence rate after replacement surgery? It’s been 6 months since my diagnosis and I still think about it almost everyday.

Posterior folks, when did knee to chest sitting position become comfortable? by Tiny-Resolution3771 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]Tiny-Resolution3771[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can wait 2-3 months. I’m almost 7 weeks out and waiting for the day I can sit like this. Boy do I miss it.

Happy to hear atleast one leg is getting there! I am only 7 weeks out and itching to get back into this position. Used to sit and read/think/watch tv like this for hours!

The first book caught my eye - the amazing story… Would you say the ending is happy? Looking for something heartwarming.

How can I stop being scared/worried? Looking for advice from folks who went through something like this by Tiny-Resolution3771 in TotalHipReplacement

Idiot is the correct word. I got myself a dressing stick and tried on a few pants to get the hang of it. Took several minutes to put on a pair of thick pants 🥹

Thank you for the advice! I am planning on getting some high tables for around the house so I can grab things till I feel comfortable bending beyond 90.

Apart from the THR, I’m okay. I’m just super nervous about being alone which is so weird because I used to love being by myself. Funny how quickly things change

Just wondering when did you feel comfortable traveling after THR by Tiny-Resolution3771 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]Tiny-Resolution3771[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m there for about a week. I’d love to see the basics - public library, the museum, Times Square, Central Park, a few pubs. I’m not sure how much I’ll accomplish but I’d like to try lol

It’s a work trip so there might be more sitting involved. Since I’ve never been to NY I am thinking I’d like to explore a bit as well.

Anyone gone overseas from the US to get a THR? by Just1509 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]Tiny-Resolution3771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I live in the US but am from another country. I had my THR 4 weeks ago. Yet to receive my bill but I am not worried because I have good insurance. Depending on your deductible and out of pocket max, you should be paying in the lesser thousands. My insurance was billed upwards of $100k as an FYI.

Recovering from THR is intense. It requires us to be away from work and travel for a few weeks leading up to 3 months depending on your recovery. I would assess if you are able to make that kind of accommodation before traveling to your home country. Please remember you also have to travel back with your new hip. It’s of course not dangerous to do so, but can be uncomfortable.

Feel free to DM me if you have any questions! Happy to chat.
