In June, 2020 I was diagnosed with an anterior and posterior labrum tear in my left hip. My best option was surgery.
I'm determined to work my way back to pre-surgery conditioning (or better). This page will document my recovery, including victories and setbacks. I’ll also be sharing the things I learn along the way. Hopefully, if you're in a similar situation, this information will help you to know what you might encounter. It always helps to know that you're not alone. Thanks for following my journey. And cheers to your recovery efforts. |
Did you ever have to bring your car into the shop for a repair only to be told it needs to have two other repairs done? That’s kind of how I’m feeling at the moment. I said there’d be setbacks. This one’s just a little earlier than expected.
During my pre-surgery physical the doctor suspected I have a hernia and I went to a surgeon this past week who confirmed it. So now I get to have two (count ‘em, two) surgeries. This just means the road to recovery is going to be a little more complex to navigate. I have full confidence that I’ll get back to the former me, but I’m shooting for an improved version. After all, if you had this much work done to your car, you’d hope it would have a little more get up and go. I'll just be careful not to accelerate too quickly during my recovery. Hip surgery is in just two days away and the surgeons have told me to take it easy, which I’m doing…mostly.
