msnolan71 3 Posted May 10, 2013 I have stairs and since my bedroom is up here- my husband made me stay upstairs because of the pain meds that I was on. Didnt want to risk me falling down them. However, after atleast a week-I did go down them slowly. You just gotta be careful. I didnt have much energy. 1 kckitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enigmachik 403 Posted May 10, 2013 I was going up and down stairs within hours of my surgery. I had to go slowly and carefully, but it was not a problem. 1 Ms.AntiBand reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy310 33 Posted May 11, 2013 Everyone is a little different. However, I had pain for a few days after surgery & I was still fine going up & down the stairs. Just took them slow & carefully. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
