Hello everyone. I’m having a right THR on April 14. It’s just about 1:00 am where I’m at and my mind won’t stop spinning. I question if this is the right thing to do all the time, but I am a mother to two young boys and I haven’t been anything but a grumpy jerk to them for the longest time. Twingy pain started a couple years ago and last summer it got bad enough where I went to a doctor and was diagnosed with a labral tear and like 4 other things wrong with my hip. The root cause of it all is hip dysplasia. Things rapidly have gone down hill starting in November. My emotions are all over the place especially because the left side now seems to be deteriorating faster than the right. My family (husband too) is getting so tired of me being irritable because of this pain. But I tell you what….it’s the worst! And I’m lying here awake dreading that I’m going to have to soon give up my diclofenac nsaid before surgery. How I will bear no meds aside from Tylenol (which has never seemed to do much for me)….it’s beyond me. And I worry about every single other thing. Like the leg length difference, the staples, etc etc etc. I know all of you understand. Just having a big old pity party for myself here in the middle of the night!
