[Poppet]

Welcome Tami, @CodeGirl - would you like to start a new thread in the pre op section so that we and the members can get to know you.

Here is the link https://bonesmart.org/forum/threads/starting-a-new-thread-and-posting.14736/

Dr does not use Hanna table.

...am I to be concerned? Have others had THR done like this?

 

[Poppet]

@Auminer I wouldn't be too concerned that your surgeon doesn't use that table. He has his operating methodology well worked out I am sure

I have brought forward this month's list so that you can easily see who your surgical buddies are.

Welcome to our latest and all May Marvels!

Feel free post your surgery date in this thread, and I will add you to the list. However, please start a thread of your own in the Pre-Op Hip Section to post comments and share your journey toward knee replacement.

Yeh, that's what he said, but I sure appreciate the confirmation!

 

[busymum]

Got my date - May 15th - bit daunting! Xx

 

[Poppet]

Welcome @busymum - the pre op time is filled with all sorts of daunting thoughts. I know this is difficult, but I found that I needed to focus on the better quality of life I would have once recovered... It worked

 

[busymum]

Hi @Poppet - am trying to stay focused on not having the constant pain anymore. Will be nice to be able to walk normal without the dodgy limp- more the recovery that's bothering me - extremely independent and hate asking for help haha x

 

[Poppet]

I hear you @busymum - it isn't easy when we have been the member of the family looking after others... but this is for your future as well as the family..

Would you like to start a thread of your own in the pre op section so that we can chat some more and I can give you some links to articles - I always find knowledge is power

 

[PuppyLove]

May 13 RTHR.

Hi @Smac I'm one day before you (May 5 for my left hip) and the right one will be done a couple of months later. Where are you in Florida?
