The right hip went great! Some suture soreness bit nothing horrible.
The left not so much. Scar tissue from an old biopsy had tangled a nerve, so it has been traumatized and now I have drop foot on my left, so it is numb and tingly and cold. They ordered an orthrotic and the cast was made on Sunday early afternoon. And then I went home. So on MOnday we had to go get the orthotic. I hate the car at the moment.
It was also more fused than they expected and had to cut the femoral head off while still in the joint.
