PAO Surgery Post Op Day 5: Routine & Recovery

PAO Surgery Journey
Both of my parents came over yesterday and we had some more delicious Rudy’s brisket!
Stayed fairly active, no naps. Surgery recovery is going well!

Today has been pretty standard. Husband back to work, but my mom is in town taking care of things while he is away 😊

Still need help getting out of bed, but adjusting to the walker. Palms still hurt, abdomen and upper body are getting stronger.

Hip itself hurts the most when I lay down for too long. Have been doing extra excercises and my progress is inching along. Pops a lot, and pretty sure my left leg is longer than my right leg. Pretty weird sensations.

Lizard business doesn’t stop when you can’t walk! With the help of my husband we shipped out a hatchling that the new keeper just finished their payment plan on. Safe travels little cutie!

Cat has been ‘helping’ and stealing my spot all day. Nice to have a sleeping buddy though haha. Just trying to stay ahead of the pain.

Follow along with my journey: Day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 16
