Hi,
I just made the surgery date of June 6th to replace my right hip. Very scared now!!!
The nurse told me I was down for a posterier . I had assumed it was anterior. Are there more restrictions on the posterier approach? I had hip arthroscopic surgery 3 months ago trying to grow fibrocartilage (micro-fracture). My Dr. told me there was a lot more arthritis in the joint than the MRI showed which is why it did not succeed.
I know I need to do this .
Any one have lots of pain in the other hip as you try not to use the bad one. Now my left hip really hurts and worries me.
