<<<How's the joint doin'?>>> I forgot to answer. It's supposed to be good! We went to see the Doc, the six week anniversary, almost, and I was worried, and he was happy.
I was worried, because it hurts, and feels ALL weird, and he was happy. The x-ray is "just right." (He says.)
Whew.
I got a copy, because I really enjoy X-rays. And to post it. Because it looks cool.
The bone is growing up to the metal, but he says the amount of muscle he cut will take nine months to heal and limber up, loosen up, overcome scarring, and that's why it hurts
It, the implant, looks big enough to last me a lifetime. Really sturdy. The stem of it goes half way down the thigh bone. Awesome. It's huge.
Titanium and chrome cobalt steel.
I set off my first detector last week, shore nuff. |
