@Newhipride I had bilateral THR and very little time, less than 6 weeks to prepare. My OA was so bad in both hips not alot I could do with my bottom half but I did try to improve my upper body strength which has served me well since surgery. Being able to lift my body up... Hold myself better with the walker, etc, has made my recovery easier. I also lost some weight prior and tried to eat really healthy to get my body's immune system tuned up.
 
Hi Jennship! I also will have the anterior approach. To the person about the stress test- let me know how that goes. I have to meet the anathesiologist a week before my surgery- and don't know why yet; I'm thinking it's for what you must do... I will learn more after my Drs visit.....
 
Hi Pierre the, I had a stress test where they used drugs to get my heart going. It was easy and it turned out great. When you meet the anathesiologist it will probably be about what type of sedation they will be using during surgery etc. Good luck !!!

Hi ...Im having a R THR on 2/6. Not long to go ! Had my pre op and joint clinic ( how to cope afterwards ) and now just keen to have it done.
I'm a fit (ish) 57 year old and looking forward to getting back to hiking, skiing etc with my new hip. ( though not straight away , obviously.)

Hi Kimmer, thanks for responding. Good luck with your op on 6th June...I'll try to blaze a trail for us! And try not to worry about your recovery ( easy to say, I know) ...there seems to be lots of good advice on this site which should help you post op. I hope it all goes well for you.

First timer over here.
I will be getting a total hip replacement June 14, 2017.
I am very nervous. I am getting a metal-on-metal hip replacement and was wondering if anyone knows how the recovery is and if they are able to get back into normal activities (i.e. running, biking, etc.).
I am 25 years old/male and very active before an accident I got into.
Hope everyone the best of luck! Thank you for any replies.

Hello Sunbeams! I'll be getting an early start to June, having RTHR on June 1! I will officially be a double-hippy!

Of course, I didn't wake up one day and say, "When I am in my 50's, I want to have both hips replaced," lol. But stuff happens and my LTHR worked out so well... why not replace the other one? Woo Hoo! Yes, I am aware I am not normal, thanks for asking.
 
Hello, @johna92 and @dougie0216 - I have added you both to the list.

johna92, I will start a thread for you in the Hip Pre-Op area, so that you can be advised about your metal on metal hip replacement. OK?
