Happy new year to everyone I know it is bound to be better than 2020. I just want to give an update on my situation. As I have posted before I am having pain and swelling in the entire area around my replaced hip along with pain in the front of my thigh. I went back to my surgeon December 8th and he told me everything looked good and ordered blood test to check for an infection. The blood test came back negative for infection so he prescribed a six day round of Prednisone which did no good at all. So my surgeon has now prescribed a twelve day treatment of Prednisone that is four times more powerful than the first round. I just started the more powerful dose of Prednisone yesterday so I don’t know yet if it will work. I am trying to be positive and take the attitude that it will work and that this is the beginning of the end of this recovery.
