Hello Everyone,
I just came across this site after many months worth of looking for help for ongoing, chronic pain after having both hips done (6 weeks apart) in Nov. - Dec. 07. My pain extends from the outer hip down the sides of both legs and I have an abnormal gait, probably due to the 1/4 inch difference in my leg length. I have PT'd to death and still can't stand or walk for very long. I can manage grocery shopping, but that's about it. The ortho says x-rays show all to be in perfect alignment, he even injected one of my hips last December with no relief. I'm sick of pain pills and wonder if anyone with an auto immune issue has ever experienced anything similar?
Sorry to go one so long!
