My wife had the same surgery. Amazing how fast they heal from that operation. She refused pain pills and got by with over the counter Ibuprofen. Recovery is easier and faster than a knee replacement I've heard.
Hope everything goes well for your wife.

Had both my hips done in 2012 plus an artery problem in the neck ten days after hip replacement. All is well first hip went better than the second one. The doctor blames it on the nurse I had as she dropped my legs to the floor rather than lower them. I was not on a recovery after surgery floor as they were full. Man talk about pain for a short time.

My total hip replacement healed very well and was on target with the anticipated gains. I have heard that hip recoveries are faster and easier then knees. I hope all goes well. post surgery protocols and dos versus don'ts is something I have followed very closely and I am sure glad I have.
