At the time we lived in a two storey house with 14 steps.  Before she left hospital, my wife was required to do workouts on the stairs.  For the first couple of days she had me beside her for confidence, but was soon sprinting up and down by herself.
So I'd recommend adding stairs to your physio regime.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Morning Fellow Members,

How time flies - 13 weeks post op YESTERDAY - QUADRUPLE BYPAS - Royal North Shore. Hospital - Open Heart Surgery.

All is better than the DATA BOX says I should be - almost all normal actions,

MUST allow time for proper healing.

All' s good ATM - looking forward to final OK Cardioligist and clearance - might be able to earn a few dollars again.

Looking forward to WOOLI in October - will be riding again by then.

Cheers to all and safe riding.

Thanks for upbeat encouragement bobster. Glad to hear your bypass went well.

Had my 6 week checkup with the awfulpod yesterday along with xrays was real weird to see this nice shiny white area that is my new hip. Anyway everything is exactly in place and perfectly lined up and I'm now allowed to sleep on my side albeit  with a pillow between my legs. No more sleepless nights :rockon :rockon :rockon

Definitely  Pete. I know it'll probably be well after Christmas but that's me being positive and when it happens I could be down your way nothing like a short ride to blow the cobwebs out of both me and the bike.

Had aother appointment with orthopod today left hip doing well with the other fantastic news being that I have another date at the slicers and dicers ball in about 3 months. I'm getting sick of all these invitations I just want to get on the road again. :'( :'( :'( :'(

Just make sure you keep them drugs and rock and roll up cos I have a feeling I'm going to need plenty of the former but they don't give you the right ones in horsetipal so I'll be relying on you to keep me stocked up.

Missus Biggles had hers done about 5 years ago and can highly recommend it.  She didn't have bad pain, so I reckon you'll pull through with needing anything too exotic.  Just get straight into the physio.  We lived in a 2 storey house and they wouldn't let her go home until she could walk up and down the hospital fire stairs.  She was doing a few day 2, home in less than a week.
