Sunday afternoon and its raining.
But......last night I slept through the night for the first time without needing painkillers in the middle of the night. Was suffering by the time I woke up though and it was a toss up between staying still and minimizing pain and moving to get pain killers but knowing that it would hurt!
Thinking tentatively about my first adventure out tomorrow to go to the cinema to see Percy Jackson and the lightning thief (the grown ups that we are). This is the first time I have made it this far in the day without needing to sleep - it just goes to show exactly how unrestful being in hospital is.
Heart still a bit irritable, all I have to do is move and my heart rate shoots up but it settles reletively quickly too. The current challenge I have is finding underwear that does not rub. Having got diferent scars on each side, one is higher than the other this is a challenge that is proving tricky. If it doesn't rub on one side it does on the other. I feel I need to invest in some supersize super high granny pants that come up to my tummy button so that they will not rub, now that will look attractive to match the browny yellow colour my right arse cheek is due to some spectacular bruising!
Right husband is getting his daily sport fix - time for me to go lie down and read.

I was diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia in March 2009. I am undergoing several operations over the next 2 years. The aim of this blog is to document my progress and allow other people to share my experinces.
