I am about to have a left THR next Wednesday after hip core decompression procedure caused my hip to collapse. Please tell me I will finally be happy again as I have AVN in both hips.

@Derrick82 Welcome to BoneSmart. I moved your post to a thread of your own. You had posted on a thread in the recovery area. You will get much more response here from other members going through the same journey.

I can confirm you will indeed be delighted post LTHR! No more hip pain! My left hip collapsed also. Nasty pain to deal with!
I have AVN in both hips
Are you planning on having your right replaced as well?
 
Yes I am actually having the right one done first then will find out Mon how far along left hip has advanced!

Derrick what is AVN? How bad had your hips got before opting for surgery and how active do you aim to be post recovery? The reason I ask is that I've only recently been told I have severe OA in both hips and I'm a fire fighter hoping to stay in this job for another 15 years as it's what I love doing.
PS-hope your procedure goes well
