This is the question I’m struggling with. I’m told that I am a candidate for two new hips. I have bone spurs that keep them from rotating properly, mostly I have very little internal rotation. I can’t cross my legs, I can’t squat even close to the floor, I can’t lean over and tie my shoes, but I can sit down and do it with only a bit of a challenge. I can no longer step high enough to get on and off of my bicycle. Having said all of that, I have no pain. I have occasional little zings up at the very top of my thigh in the middle of one leg, but just for a second. I play Pickleball 2 to 3 hours most days, no problem. I’m not kept awake at night by pain. I can walk all I want, but I am always aware of my hips when I am walking. They just don’t roll smoothly, but they are not painful. Just a bit awkward. But when I am sitting or lying down, I feel perfect. Is it worth having two surgeries to get that range of motion back? I know that in the end only I can make that decision, but I’d really like the opinions of some of you have been here before me. I’ve only read The stories of people who have been in a great deal of pain before surgery. I’ve never come across anybody in my position, with no pain and being able to be almost fully active. I feel like I could trade never being able to ride a bicycle to avoid 2 surgeries. I’ve been agonizing over this decision for about six months now, and the stress is really eating away at me. The surgeon I saw said that I will need both replaced, but it’s up to me on timing since I’m not experiencing pain right now. Is it possible that I will never have pain? Was anyone else out there in the position I am now?
