Ok so I posted this on the other board too, thought I would see what answer I get here. People keep saying to me that I won't be able to/I will have difficult climbing stairs (thus I need to stay with my mother for a few days instead of my house by myself) Did anybody have problems climbing stairs?

Thanks

Only a little. I didn't purposely go looking for any to climb though :mad:

I did not go upstairs in my house, but did have to climb a couple here and there. I just took it slow.

Good luck to you!

I had no problem with stairs. I slept in my own bed on the second floor right away. I came back to work just three days after surgery and yes my office is on the second floor, and no, we do not have an elevator as our building is old. I go up and down those stairs a dozen times a day (I should be skinny). I have had no issues at all.

Just take them slow...but I had no problems climbing them the day of surgery :mad:

When I came back to work one week after surgery, I did get dizzy on my first trip up the stairs and almost passed out. After that first time though, I was fine.

I had no problems with stairs, but bending over was impossible for the first 3 weeks for me. I wish I had asked my mom to come stay with me because getting dressed (especially socks and shoes) was very difficult.
