I know everyone is different but barring any real individual pain management issues, or surgical complications (or anything that COULD happen) all I can say is go into recovery knowing it is painful and you have to push through it (within reason, I used a physical therapist to judge if I was ready to push the walking further and further) but the outcome will worth it. It really was reading on here that kept me focused on going through the surgery and then knowing I am going to recover with time/patience/effort.
