Glad you're OK, I'll probably be needing this in a few years, the left hip is shooting craps, I'm trying to hold out another 2-3 years, then go for it, great info, thanks.
Hope you'll be feeling better soon, it's for the best I'm sure, thanks again.

Everyone tells me "dont wait" due to muscle atrophy and eventual back issues due to compensation...

Get er done...
My left hip went from pretty good to bone on bone in just under one year, I guess due to favoring the right side... I feel like I waited too long BUT if I hadnn't I wouldn't have ended up with this surgeon/technique...-In a Republic, the sovereignty resides with the people themselves.

My pain isn't consent, it's sporadic and sometimes gets worse with the weather, when it gets greater than 50% of the time I'll start the process with talking to Doctor, I've talked to my GP and he advised me to wait until I'll need meds for the pain, I'm not there yet, thanks for the info and good luck Bruce.
