Hello Everyone,
I posted yesterday and have been thinking about my situation ever since finding this board. I am having my left hip done on a Monday, then my left knee done that Thursday. Both joints are in very rough shape, I cannot make it through a normal day anymore without substantial pain.
Does anyone have any experience with having same-side hip and knee replacement surgery? My doc said he does a few of these a year and it's not a problem, but I'm starting to get concerned about PT and such.
The reason I'm doing it like this is because I am only 30 years old, with two small kids and I want to just get everything done in one swoop.
Thanks!
