If you've recently had a leg amputated above knee , advice from someone who has already experienced it can sometimes answer questions that aren't covered during appointments. What should you keep nearby during early recovery? Which household changes were useful? What helped with rehabilitation or adapting to a new routine? This discussion is about honest experiences rather than perfect recovery stories. If you've been through an above-knee amputation, what is one practical piece of advice you'd give someone just starting the journey?
