So, I am just setting up this recovery thread. My surgery is tomorrow, April 13, at 9:45 am. I had my left hip done in 2014, so I am curious to compare recoveries. I am not scared. I just want it over with. I have been in terrible pain for months! I had a bad staph infection in November. I was in the hospital for a month. When I got out, my right hip had gotten so bad that I couldn’t walk without a walker. They made me wait for surgery to make sure I was free of any infection. My blood work has been wonderful for 2 months now, so they gave me the go ahead and moved me up from May 11 to April 13. I’m so happy. I’ll be reporting here after surgery. I wrote here almost every day after my LTHR. It was a great source of comfort and I have been able to go back and see what I dealt with on a daily basis.
