Chuffed with myself today!

Have managed all day with no walking stick at all! (11 weeks post TKR)

For the last 4 weeks back at work I have used 1 stick for some of the time, and for the last week have walked to the bus stop in the morning using 1 stick.
Today I managed both the morning walk and all day in the office with no walking stick at all!
Back to work full time from next week..........yahoo!

That's Progress that is! :lol:

    Julia I can say I know exectly how you feel 'cos I was about the same time post op when I stopped using my stick :)

    It is a good feeling albeit a bit weird at first but once confident there is no looking back.

    Well done :D
