I am 46 and new to this forum. It is comforting and disturbing that there are others out there like me. Since a fall in 2012, when my hip pain began, I have been diagnosed with bilateral dysplasia, bilateral laberal tears, bilateral osteoarthritis and both kinds of hip bursitis that doesn't ever seem to go away!!! I have been to a surgeon who repairs hips and was told they were too bad to repair. I then went to a replacement specialist and he says they are not bad enough to replace. I was told I am in the "grey area". Also that they would rather wait until I'm 50. WELL THE CLOCK IS TICKING ON MY LIFE. I am a single mother with a 12 year old boy and I can't do laundry without being laid up the whole next day let alone go to baseball games and have to walk a mile!!!!! Meanwhile I'm stuck with the pain shots they do with the X-ray and pain killers which help somewhat but doesn't give me my life back!!!! I don't want to wait!!!! Any suggestions????
