Hello!
Things are going great and only getting better! the only pain I'm left with at the moment is this ludicrous pain in my hips (especially on the right side) due to the muscles de-cramping as a result of running back and forth from the gym and stretches. The doc said it's going to take another couple of months before it stops hurting. Also my right leg has regained the strength that it's supposed to have so the ankle doesn't hurt any more. Which is nice as we all know. Although I didn't make it to winter sport this year I look forward to making it to ski tracks and slopes (for snow boarding) next year. Ice climbing is something I might make it to this year. Put the products to the test time and again!! . Also my nuisance diet is kicking in and weight loss is nice and rapid! Due to all this I am actually busy these days, something I had completely forgotten about!It was nice to hear that everyone is doing well and only getting better! In the light of the statistics I have to say this is all due to optimal choice of surgeon. I hope that everyone keeps doing well and stay happy!! With Very Best Regards Larry

Chuck... thanks for posting the update from Larry. Have him contact me... sounds like my kind of person.
Dale... many of us don't know better than to start testing the products very early. It used to drive my neighbors crazy when I was 2 months post-op riding my bike with 2 yellow labs on leash... or better yet... rollerblading around the neighborhood with both dogs on leash. (backwards was best) All kidding aside, knowing what I know now, I would not do those things so early. Yes, there is too much at risk. However, once the healing is complete, I think that we all must make our own risk assessment, do what we will and live with the consequences. If you feel that skydiving or ice climbing is too much... then by all means don't do it. Learning a new sport that will involve a lot of trauma might not be the best of things for a post-op patient, but if you are already an expert skier or skydiver... you know what you are in for... you know how to manage the risks.... and again... you accept the consequences of your actions.
