People should note that while I describe such a difficult first 2 weeks post-op, the recovery after that was stellar. A few weeks later I was riding my bike to PT, rollerblading around the neighborhood backwards with 2 yellow labs on leash. At 3 months I was playing tennis and at 4 months I was skiing black diamond runs and scuba diving.

If you are lucky, you'll have an easy time. If you are unlucky, it will be difficult. BUT... the difficult times are just a few more days or weeks of the same kind of hell we all lived with for years before our surgeries. The only think that matters is how you feel at 6 months, 2 years, 5 years....

Good luck!

Mark
