What's your opinion on this?
I have two knees that are extremely bone on bone and have been for years. Recently my right hip started acting up as well so I went to the OS. He says both hips are arthritic as well as the knees, which I knew. He insists that the hip has to be replaced first, and I understand the reasoning, but....
I feel awful having the hip fixed after hobbling around all these years on the bad knees. I am barely getting around now.
I guess my question is, has anyone experienced an issue like this? I know so many people have had different scenarios I thought this would be a good place to ask.
Should I try to get the knees done first?
