    Bilateral TKR DREADING BTKR....

    Well, here I am back on Bonesmart. It's been a few years! Just some quick background info. I had LTHR in 2013 and RTHR in 2015. Did great with both replacement surgeries/recoveries. I'm looking at getting BTKR surgery in late February 2020. I absolutely dread the idea of it. Not sure how...

    Too young?

    Hello BS Friends! I'm new to the knee forum, but not new to BS. I'm 47 years old and already have had both HIPS replaced due to osteoarthritis. I just found out I'm bone-on-bone on my left knee and a replacement is inevitable! Hearing that has made me insanely upset, sad, scared, mad and...

    THR Here we go again...Hip #2 Recovery

    I'm creating my recovery thread today so I can easily post after surgery. 5:30 am arrival time for tomorrow. @Josephine have you ever heard of a new liner that is infused with vitamin E (reduces wear). My surgeon is going to use this for my right hip. Left his is regular liner.

    Countdown has begun.....January 14th LTHR

    So many mixed emotions right now. One minute I'm scared and the next I can't wait for this to be over. I've read over pretty much everything in the library here and my doctor has informed me as to what to expect, so I feel I'm educated on the surgery and recovery. I'm working out three days a...

    Having second thoughts...

    Am I crazy? I've scheduled my LTHR for January 14, 2013 and now I'm having second thoughts. Here's a little about myself: In March 2012, I went to OS because I was having knee pain and hip "discomfort". After xrays I was advised that I needed a THR ASAP, due to osteoarthritis, and that my...

    What to expect??

    Hi, I'm new here. I'm 43 years young and scheduled for LTHR on January 14, 2013. Just a few questions: Do you have to sleep on your back after surgery? Do you think I'll be walking around unassisted and be able to bend by mid-March? I'm sick with worry over this. The fear of unknown is...
