i was good going home the same day. had family up that took care of me for nearly a week. i was off a cane at 7 days and the quad snow moving that i eased into did not hurt during or after.
was all good until i slipped on some ice in like week 5 and put a bunch of my weight on the new joint. subsequent x showed i jammed the rod 4mm further into the femur. did not fracture the femur and was not loose in the bone..
it's snowing again...
