Hi Everybody,
Just wanted to update everyone on how I am going. I had my revision in December, and I can honestly say, it was worth it. I've really improved the last month, and am back to full steam at the gym. I guess full steam for me is not lifting heavy weights, but I'm doing light weight training and 30min on the stairmaster. I have some tiredness, but very minimal pain in comparison to what I used to have. I still need help at home, but it is more because I am studying hard and focusing on rehabilitation and fitness, rather than keeping up with the house work. My wonderful mother in law to be is helping with the housework, because my fiancee works long hours to try and fund my frivolous college lifestyle
So, life is good right now, I am really pleased I had the surgery. I'm also looking forward to summer (I'm in the Southern Hemisphere!), this summer will not be filled with pain, boredom, and misery. It will be filled with swimming, sailing, probably working on my thesis, but YAY! So glad!
I hope that I can offer some hope to those of you facing revisions. I was pretty miserable this time last year and very uncertain the surgery would be worthwhile.
