I was up walking around since day 6 but slowly…. Everyday I walk around the house more and more this week I was told I didn’t have to use he foam binder but I use it here and there for support. In the mornings it’s still slow and I’m back to being hunched over or when I sit for long periods of time
I’ve heard of women say they weren’t able to walk upright for four months post tt…is that an exaggeration or is it like that for some? LNG u look great! Does it hurt to walk at all? R u able to stand completely straight?
I only hunch in the mornings and after sitting for maybe half hour to an hour or more. I took a cab to my 6 day post op DT seattle and I took the bus home (2 busses and walked 20 mins from the bus stop) on that day I walked über slow that day but ever since I just make it a point to get up and walk around get my blood flowing through out my body. Before Tuesday this week anytime I went outside for walks I would wear my foam binder for more support. Now I just stroll along no running or fast walking ( I tried fast walking last week and boy was I swollen later)
Also at this point I’m smoking MMJ again ( yay!!!) as it dosent hurt to cough or go poop ( tmi i hurled last week and had zero pain) so I’m sure my insides are pretty healed up waiting for the last part of the outside to heal which I will be posting pictures in the other thread where in wearing all black
Feels good to be seen after you heal some! Confidence booster for sure! I was always able to stand straight. Got stiff only if I laid around or sat too long
Wow! Looking good! I’m 3 wks. still in bed, having a rough time.

I bet you are, baby!!
Four months is ridiculous. I was walking properly at 2 weeks.
