It is worth noting though that it is often a bi-lateral conditon i.e. both legs may be affected over time. The main thing at the moment is keep going with her medications as directed and lots of rest! There will be a period of recovery after the op which your surgeon will advise you on, usually about 6-8 weeks. This needs to be strictly followed in order to allow healing to take place.
