THR April 10th A bright, new shiny right hip!

[NewShoes]

Hi all, I'm scheduled for my lateral THR on Monday April 10th. It's been a long road of pain. Originally diagnosed with a labral tear in 2011. My hip caused a series of falls, one which caused a Lisfranc fracture of my left foot that required 2 surgical repairs. My 2023 MRI showed AVN and a collapsed femoral head.

I have an appointment with the surgeon's MA on Tuesday 4/4 for instructions. She told me I would need to stay in the hospital for 2 days, so it looks like I'll be coming home on Wednesday April 12th, which is my birthday.

Looking forward to packing a little bag for the hospital with a pair of NEW SHOES!

Regards,
Camille
