For the most part the caretaker is just there to help you get used to it

Have you done ur LL yet? If so how long it take for u to be independent for daily life(ordering food, going to pt on your own)

I had my caretaker for 10 days but this was only extended as I had pneumonia so I was very weak and on a lot of meds. After 3 days recovering from that, I was able to walk and do everything myself.

Who was your doctor? Did it hurt as bad as you thought?

How is it possible for almost no pain? Other LON patients say its excrutiating.
