    THR Tgcmoore in recovery

    My biggest problem is not getting exhausted after just getting up and moving around. not much pain to speak of which I’m grateful for. But if I get up and go to the bathroom and go to the kitchen and do some thing, I get exhausted and have to go back and sit down. Does anyone know how long this...

    THR Tgcmoore in recovery

    Blood pressure got better right away. It’s funny because I was in so much pain going in the hospital and I left with just the pain from the incision. I got home last Thursday and haven’t had anything for pain since Saturday morning. This is wonderful.

    THR Tgcmoore in recovery

    My surgery went well. My doctor said the actual hip was a lot worse than the X-ray showed. Most of the pain is gone except pain when I lift to get on the bed or lift. Is that incision pain, it seems to be in my thigh/groin area. This concerns me that there may be another issue in there. The...

    THR What do I do if the pain is awful

    Every time I lift my leg to get into bed or get into my car it feels like my muscle is just ripped in there and it pulls in Burns and stings. It almost feels like I tore a muscle. If I have my leg straight out and I want to lift it up the same thing it hurts really bad. I see my surgeon on...

    THR What do I do if the pain is awful

    I just got a call today that they had a cancellation and my surgery is moved up from December 27 to November 8. Such a relief. I didn’t think I could wait till December 27. If anyone here has had a knee replacement before needing the hip replacement, do you remember the pain from the knee being...

    THR What do I do if the pain is awful

    I’m not scheduled for surgery until December 27 and I’m in so much pain that I can’t function. I can’t sleep or eat. It hurts to sit down and stand and get in the car and get in bed. I tried everything, acupuncture, physical therapy, Tramadol, lidocaine patches and voltaren gel and nothing does...

    THR Hip replacement a year after knee replacement

    Another thing is. When I’m in bed with leg straight or sitting for a while it gets so stiff. It’s painful to move.

    THR Hip replacement a year after knee replacement

    Thank you. I know my knee was hurting before I had it replaced, but nothing like this. It’s very stiff in the upper thigh green area so when I try to walk, feels like I am not able to bend it at all and it’s sore. I have just been laying around. I can’t do anything which makes me sad. I agree I...

    THR Hip replacement a year after knee replacement

    I am in so much pain right now that I don’t know if hip arthritis would hurt this bad. I had a lot of things to do this weekend and a lot of walking although I can’t walk too far and without pain and a limp. I’m worried that something else might be wrong.

    THR Pain before surgery

    Surgery will be scheduled as soon as the scheduler calls me. I had an injection in the hip joint in august so I have to wait 3 months. Can’t have surgery within 3 months of an injection. It hurts so bad that I’m concerned something other than the hip is wrong.

    THR Pain before surgery

    I don’t have a surgery date yet, waiting for the scheduler to call. But I had a fluoroscopy guided injection that only lasted a week back in august so have to wait 3 months from then.
