2018 May Marvels - Are you having hip surgery in May?

I’ll be having my right hip replaced on May 16th. I’m very excited and nervous at the same time.
 
I am scheduled for total hip replacement of my right hip on May 21st. I am somewhat nervous because I have screw in my hip that has been there since I was 14 yrs old.
 
I have brought forward this month's list so that you can easily see who your surgical buddies are.


Welcome to our latest and all May Marvels!

Hi All!
I had right knee TKR on November 16, 2017, left knee tkr on December 19, 2017 and now have to have left THR on May 31, 2018. I have never had any hip pain or issues until 2 months ago. Pain increased to the point now of unrelenting 24/7 pain that radiates down my leg into my calf. X-Ray shows FAI and late stage arthritis my only option is a THR.
I work in a school office, due to the amount of time I have taken off for the knee replacements this school year, I have to wait until school is out to have the surgery. It's going to be a long 6 weeks, trying hard to stay positive and keep a sense of humor :)

Glad to share May 31st with you! I had both knees done about 2-1/2 years ago and my first hip about 1-1/2 years ago. I’m also trying to stay positive while waiting it out. Glad you’re part of us May Marvels!
