    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi @cc1973 thank you for your reply. And sorry for my delayed reply. I am pretty much in the same situation as you I think, I do have a constant dull ache especially to me left hip (Which is my worst) along with sharp shootings pains, which I will be asking the doc about on 5th December. I...

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    @cc1973 Please may I ask what flexibility you had at the age of 22? And what the stiffness and pain stopped you from doing at that age? I just want to know if my case is as severe as yours and maybe I could last until the age you had your hip replacements? Thanks

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi there just checking in. Thanks @cc1973 for your advice. It's hard to find people with this diagnosis especially at such a young age, so i do really appreciate your comment. However, already at the age of 22 I am struggling with day-to-day activities such as getting in and out of my car, I...

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi @Jaycey No I didn't ask anything about my results I think I'm just pretty scared about what its going to say, so I would rather just dismiss it while I can. I am hoping to hear from the doctor in the next couple of weeks though.

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi everyone. I can't say how much I appreciate all your comments on my post. Everyone has said I should get my hips replaced now rather than later, which I guess deep down you guys are right. I think it's just the reality of this whole situation and I am probably in denial about it all and...

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    @Jaycey @Ginny12 Hi both. Thank you both for your concern, I am still very shocked about the diagnosis and did not think it would as worse as this! I still feel like I am in a sticky situation as doctors have said we wouldn't like to give a hip replacement on a person so young and would try and...

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi there, yes that is extremely scary and would definitely want to avoid it at all costs. From what I can remember on my X-ray i think it showed the femoral head protruding past the ischioilial line not completely through my pelvis. My mistake. I do have a MRI scan booked in soon, will that tell...

    Shall I postpone my double hip replacement for a year?

    Hi everyone, I am new to this! I am 22 years old and I decided about 3 months ago I had enough of my bilateral hip pain that I had since I was about 14. I always thought it was a groin injury that I had put off for years as I was adamant I wanted to continue playing football. However I had...
