New Hip .

My hip replacement was 11 years ago, and I still get in a car bum first, facing out. Then swivel hips with knees together, to get legs in.

Eglantine19 also has a thread about hip replacement and afterwards.
All the best!

Congratulations crazygran I hope all goes well and you and your new hip have a great time.

front seat and erratic drivers .... sigh

I drove yesterday for the first time since hip replacement in Feb with no problems at all! I had a new hip by default as I fell and broke my own so it's been quite a drama, but now getting better by the day. Good luck Crazygran!

aggie the front seat only for many months!

Well done it's not an easy thing I'm 4mths out from mine and am almost back to normal I hope you get the all clear today. ?

Good luck , I am in the queue for a new hip , I have never driven , but I am hoping to be able to get in and out of a car without whimpering !!!lol

I hope he gives you the go-ahead and you have a new lease of life. Good luck.
