Gramma

I really need to do something. Anyone have advice for a grandma?

I have a hard time walking because of hip problems, so what can a girl do?

I'd love some advice Thanks!

I hear you on the hip issue, after my first I almost fell off the labor bed, my right hip popped and since then I got issues sometimes. I do a afew leg lifts when I can, otherwise I concentrate alot on my upper body strength. I was in a car wreck in Jan 03, and since then I have back/neck issues and some shoulder ones, so I try and keep moving otherwise things get sore.

Have you tried talking to a doctor to see what they may recommend?

Gramma

Yeah. They recommended losing weight. lol

alexis

I actually meant, a more specific answer - did they tell you certain things you can and can not do b/c of any health reasons.

Gramma

No, they really didn't bother to tell me anything. Just blamed it all on the weight and ignored any other requests for information or assistance. Like exactly the kind of information you were looking for. They just talk over me like I'm a dumb old lady.
