How long
Hi Lasse,
It has been one year when I finally can say I do feel better. If you are like the 95% of the rest of us, you will get better and worse many times in the following 12-18 months. I, like you, first thought it was a matter of weeks; I was bitterly disappointed.
The feeling you are describing was the same for me: my body felt like it did not know what was done to it, and reacted in many strange and sometimes painful ways.
I would NOT do any PT or exercises for the first 3 months at all. 6 maybe even better. The worst thing that can happen to you in my opinion during this time is the movement / displacement / sinking of the implant. Just walk, as much as your body will tell you.
This is my opinion only; others may disagree and this is fine. Everyone is different.
Regards,
Roman
