Haha, that would have been a good title, 2 hips, 3rd surgery. One gift (among the many) I remember I got from you was "American heelers", what a company, love them, though we'll see after this one, I may get a bit more evened out.

I started my thread, it is called Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional (3/30/217)

See you in the forums and nice to have familiar moderators to come back to

Hi, everyone!

I'm 36 and live in central Florida. My RTHR is scheduled for March 28, just 5 days from now. I'm having it done at the Mayo Clinic Hospital in Jacksonville.

Best of luck to everyone!

Hi @bottomshollow, could you please change my date? I've been bumped to April 21st instead of March 24th.

Thanks!

@confused newb, you have been officially removed from the March surgery list and will be placed on the April list.

Hi Kris, welcome to the March gang. Create yourself a thread so you can get the support you need

I had my THR on the 17th! So far so good. Recovery is way better than the last hip replacement. Mostly sore but moving around fairly well. Realizing its best to rest the first week than trying to start PT strengthening exercises too hard. I end up pretty sore through the night and can't sleep. Overall very happy with surgeon and hospital. Newton Wellesley in Boston. Great team and facility there.

 

[VThereandnow]

Way to go ! You should make yourself a post op thread so you can post and people can respond to your post. Glad things are going well. Look forward to your updates. Mine is less than a week away and I cannot wait. I remember that first week thinking "dang this is worse than I thought" and the 2nd week thinking "this is better than I thought LOL. Glad your new surgeon worked out for you. Take it slow, Cathy

Hi, I am new here. Not sure what I am doing. My RTHR is scheduled for March 7th. I am 65

Who is doctor ?

 

[cat2grant]

My first post but have been pouring over the wealth information on this site. I believe knowledge is power so am so pleased to have found you online. March 7 is my THR surgery date. Last X-ray I was down to bone on bone so taking care of it asap. Want to walk my dogs and possibly even play golf again!

Soon to be new golfer.

My wife has to have THR soon...looking for a good Doctor, any advice ????
