@sequin98 Hi friend. Happy belated 6 month hipversary!
Been wondering how you were doing?
Sure hope you are seeing some improvement...and if you care to share, know we are there.
(Hey, I'm a poet and didn't know it)
Hope today is a Good Day!
Happy Six Month Anniversary!
Sorry lefty is causing you so much grief. Any ideas what you're going to do?
Wishing you comfort and a nice weekend! @sequin98
Hi Bev-
I was born with it. My hip sockets did not develop- I had no signs of it until 4 years ago. I was always very active. I felt the pain when I had no cartilage left in my right hip. I had end stage OA in my right and moderate OA in my left.
@sequin98 another undiagnosed one! I had the same that was never diagnosed but I was never active as I had limited range of movement in my hips, put it down to just being very unsupple!! I could never drop my knees down to the side when trying to sit cross legged. It has become a bit of a fascination with me all my life watching others do it and wondering why I couldn't! What an idiot that I never complained. I have heard somewhere that even if diagnosed and corrected at an early age it's very probable you end up with OA anyway. Trials of life eh? Hope you get some help soon xxxx
Would an OS say that I have too much cartilage to have surgery? While I have moderate OA, Hip dysplasia, along with deferred back pain...I worry that they may say I have too much cartilage to get a new hip..
@sequin98 I would think that with the hip dysplasia and all your pain, that that would take precedence over what remaining cartilage you have....but I'm not a doctor!
So sorry you have this long wait. It is just no fun when you have that horrid bone on bone pain. Hang in there! Fingers crossed you will get a cancellation slot!
