I was released from the hospital on Sunday morning. I probably could have gone home on Saturday, but I had a bit of dizziness in the morning, which went away, but I decided to stay the night just to be safe and since there was no added cost. I am still doing good,walking 3-4 times per day for 10-30 minutes. I'm going to see Mr. Boeree today for a follow up and then have a physio pool session tomorrow and 1 on friday after which I'll get my clips taken out.
Today I am hoping to get a copy of my medical records and a payment receipt as I am going to try to submit this to my insurance company, even though the chance I will be reimbursed is probably pretty small.
Congrats on such a success! You're an inspiration and I love to read how you are doing. As I got up to take a pain pill in the middle of the night from the nerve pain down my left leg, I thought of how nice it will be to get rid of that irritating, relentless, sleep-robbing crap! Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joey sue. They will take good care of you here. They stressed that there will be ups and downs in the recovery and potential for times of increased pain as my body gets used to things changing slightly and everyone is different, but it is still pretty miraculous for me so far. Can't wait for 3 months to go by so I can start to return to my old activities once the bone has bonded with the new implant!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear things are going well. We are thinking of you and appreciate the updated blogs.
ReplyDeleteIt won't be long and the recovery period will be a thing of the past and you'll be back to normal activites.
Take care Tim.
