I WALKED FINE EXCEPT HAD BONE ON BONE PAIN IN LEFT HIP. SURGERY WAS PREFORMED & I WALKED FINE WITH A WALKER AFTER THE PROCEDURE, THE THERAPIST SAID SHE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYONE THAT STRONG RIGHT AFTER SURGERY, & WAS SENT HOME ON MORNING OF DAY 3. ON DAY 7, MY LEG SWELLED UP, & WAS SENT FOR A DOPLER TO CHECK FOR BLOOD CLOT. NOTHING FOUND. AFTER RETURNING HOME, MY LEG FROM THE KNEE DOWN, HAD NO CONTROLL, JUST FLOPPED WHEREVER IT WANTED TO GO. I CALLED IT A SPAGHETTI LEG. HAD 2 DIFFERENT ROUNDS OF P.T. & WAS TOLD I HAD NO PROGRESS, & THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO FIX. SENT TO Dr. Edward A Trudeau, MD - Springfield, IL TO CHECK FOR NERVE DAMAGE, NO FINDINGS. RELEASED FROM SURGEON WHO WAS DISMISSED FROM THE HOSPITAL WHERE SURGERY WAS PREFORMED WITH A PARTING NOTE OF " IT'S JUST GOING TO TAKE TIME ". IT'S BEEN 11 MONTHS NOW, & THE LEG FROM KNEE DOWN DOESN'T FLOP UNLESS I'M ON IT FOR 20 MINUTES OR SO, & THEN I FEEL IT STARTING TO WANDER. IT'S BEEN 11 MONTHS, & I EITHER USE A WALKER OR HOLD ON TO SOMETHING TO MOVE AROUND OUR HOME, & A WALKER IF GOING OUT OF THE HOUSE. NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, OR WON'T TELL ME WHAT IT IS. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS NOW?
