Hi Billy
Great to have had that cataract done - don't be reluctant to take some pain medication, my Dad found it helped with the desire to rub that itchy eye as well!
I did look at your X-ray, good grief - that has to be faulty! Now I'm worried about mine, having odd niggly pains and clicks and have a doctor's appointment later this month when I will ask for mine to be x-rayed or scanned. My implant is a "Triumph Accolade" - we used to have a Triumph Herald car and hubby had a Triumph Tiger motorbike, any connection? Brrrmmbbrrrmmm!
Glad your re-replacement seems to be doing OK, take care of yourself (and good news about the grandson!)
Regards
Anne

Sorry Josephine
Here was me thinking you were still on the advocates lol got my replacement hip done on the 13th February two days after I had been taken to hospital, they stated that they would have to operate and get the broken hip out within 48 hours of arriving.
In all honesty I don't think I put a date in on the first thread sorry Josephine.

Cheers copsham
I am feeling quite good and trying not to overdo it in any form, no crutches about the house and my eye is slightly sore if I forget myself and rub it, but nothing serious onwards and upwards.

Sorry Josephine for not getting back sooner but a new kid just came into our care and another two coming for the weekend so quite busy.
did they have any problems getting it out?
Have to admit I was a tad worried when they talked about the loss of blood and the possibility of nerve damage and breaking my bone to get the faulty one but luckily there wasn't any major problems.
Well folks that's me off my crutches and walking about without them, 3 weeks until I can drive and possibly 5 until I return to work but will monitor this and see how I feel first.

Yes, some do slip out quite easily and others, well, the less said about that the better!
Glad to hear you are progressing so well.
One more question, is the surgeon sending the prosthesis back to the manufactures for investigations?
