Bilateral THR Bilateral THR Post-Op
Day 2. Wow, what a difference a day makes. I decided to take the Oxy and it was the right decision. As much as I didn't want to do it, the weaker pain meds just weren't enough.

Bilateral THR Bilateral THR Post-Op

Upcoming BTHR
Hello all. I am brand new to this site and grateful for the information I have found here. I am scheduled for BTHR on March 11. I'm only 56 but very active at the gym and on the golf course so my surgeon recommends both at once. I'm very, very nervous and hope I don't regret this decision...- zoohouse62
