To your Missus having a new hip in, I've had one done already, waiting for other done.
Had epidural no problem, easier operation & less time, compared to a new knee operation, went to Badsley Moor lane twice, my hip was excellent so did not need more help.
When I went to Badesley Moor lane, the physios put you in pairs, then you do different exercises, going round the gym, where has it is one on one with a knee operation, due to the physio's having to get your knee bending.
What your missus should be getting, is a portable seat to put over the toilet, so she is at the right height, to help her taking pressure off the hip, the hospital physios delivered mine to my home.
My new hip is great, just a little niggle now & then, having it gives you a better lifestyle.
