Other than around the surgical site, I don't feel much pain; far less than before the hip was repaired. The operation was performed at Raj Soin Hospital in Beavercreek, Ohio, using a new anterior approach method which, while considered minimally invasive, is still pretty invasive. No muscles are cut so recovery time is very fast. Two days ago I couldn't even stand still without pain and now I can stand pain-free, walk pain-free, and eventually I'll recover all my capabilities.
Good news, my brother!
