I'm starting to get slight pain in the knee of my shorter leg plus the small of my back that I hope will ease when I get a shoe raiser/balancer. That should even out my leg lengths and make walking easier. I will keep you posted on my progress once this happens. I am currently getting over the side effects of the radiotherapy so not really walking much and certainly not going out yet. No sciatic nerve pain though

peaky1966, It sounds like you’ve had a “two steps forward, one step back” kind of process with your recovery and radiotherapy. For what it’s worth, in the one month leading up to my THR, I was starting to get some sciatic nerve and lower back pain relief by experimenting with movement exercises in a swimming pool. I should also comment that my sciatic nerve and lower back pain had developed over many years of neglect on my part in trying to mitigate the problem. Stay the course. Blessings, jbro
