    Hip Resurfacing Revision concerns

    Just to let you know I upped the dose as mentioned and this certainly helped. I am back to 1 dihydrocodeine every 4 hours now as I am more comfortable. Only grumble now is pain in my shoulder but this is unrelated. I am able to move on with my exercises now! Many Thanks Tommy
