Hey Ob,

Funny, I had my hip done at TCO as well. Dr. Owen O’Neill. He did a fantastic job. You probably also used their “suite” services. Pretty nice to say the least.

Thanks for your input. It’s great to see others that are thoughtful about healing and not rushing into things too fast. Parking lot shuffle is right on point. I’m tempted at times to pick it up but keep telling myself to “be patient” and concentrate on speed walking.

Did you ever have any soreness as you were working up to running? I get occasional soreness after faster/longer walks. Mostly it is int the c-cup region/groin. Its right where the ball would meet the socket – on the front side of the hip. Nothing in the femur though. It could be scar tissue or it simply could be the additional stress of the components against my bones. Not sure but it is a reminder to back off and swim or bike instead. thoughts?

thanks for your note!
