Hi RinTinTin! I am in the exact same boat as you as I have severe osteoarthritis in both hips. I had my right THR on 7/15 and have the left THR tentatively scheduled for 9/9. My surgeries are 8 weeks apart. When I say tentative I mean that the OS has penciled me in on 9/9 and the space is saved for me, but he wants to be absolutely sure that my right hip is well recovered before tackling the left one. I suspect that your OS likely has the same mindset and will be watching your right hip recovery very closely.
My OS will actually do consecutive surgeries as early as six weeks apart if recovery is going well with the prior hip. Your surgeries are 11 weeks apart, so if your right hip is faring well on the recovery track, you should have no issues with the consecutive surgery timeframe. Also, when you go into Surgery #2, you will know exactly what to expect the second time around and can go into Surgery #2 with complete confidence. You were smart and should be happy to have Surgery #2 scheduled right away.
As of this writing I am 19 days post recovery on the right hip, which is feeling pretty great overall considering how recent my surgery was. However, the non-operated left hip is starting to act up and I definitely notice the difference; the left knee locks up and the entire left leg moves very tightly compared to the right one. The right hip has some pain in the incision area and intermittent pain in the groin area, but I was told that is to be expected since I have gained more mobility since the surgery. However, the right hip pain I've been having is fairly minimal and nowhere near what I had pre-surgery.
I have had no complaints about my right THR thus far and am hoping and praying my 9/9 left THR will be a go. I have the feeling that once you get the right one done, you will be like me and want the left one done ASAP once you experience the results. Let's face it; the sooner we take care of this, the sooner we reclaim our lives back!
Keep us informed on your progress, and good luck!
