As yoopersigs said. I have a friend (60 ish) who had hip replaced. After 3 weeks he said he felt great, and shouldn't have waited in pain for 3 years. | |||

I pray that you have as great an outcome as I did with both of mine. Both times the pain was less the next day than it was before surgery. I cannot stress enough how much your diligence in rehab counts, I exceeded what was expected of me, and it certainly paid off. Fun? NO, but I was back to light duty as a plumber in 2 weeks with the first, and 3 weeks with the second (a bit of swelling issues) Remember this, they will give you your life back with effort! _________________________________________________ "Once abolish the God, and the Government becomes the God." --- G.K.

Today's joint replacement technology is amazing. My 62 year old neighbor had both hips replaced over a 9 month period. 4 months after his 2nd hip was replaced he hiked 11 miles with me with some significant elevation gains. Good luck and hope you feel much better in a few weeks. | |||

Yikes!!! I'm sure all will go well. Just hope it's not me someday...  GET WELL SOON!!! "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Hunthelp, by the time you read this your surgery will be in the rear view mirror. A little over 3 years ago I had the same anterior total hip replacement of my left hip. It has been nothing short of amazing. Time to get the right hip to match my bionic left one. Best of luck with your rehab and rapid recovery. ________________________________________________________ The trouble with trouble is; it always starts out as fun. | |||

My wife, now 70, fell 2 years ago in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. She fell on a rock and broke her hip. The next day she had it surgically replaced by an excellent Mexican Orthopedic Doc. A few months later she was fine and now 2 years later she forgets it happened. She did all of the rehab the Dr suggested. Note: Do The Damn Rehab. Repeat after me.....

See the above. Do the PT! Good luck. It's damn near routine now. Train how you intend to Fight Remember - Training is not sparring. Sparring is not fighting. Fighting is not combat. | |||

Important future safety tip. When explaining why the airport detector went off do not say "I'm packing a rod". My grade school teacher's mother did that. They had no sense of humor. | |||

I got word Tuesday afternoon to report to the hospital at 5 a.m. (2 hours earlier) on Wednesday. I got home yesterday at 3 p.m. In and out in 33 hours. "I don't shoot well, but I shoot often." - Pres. T. Roosevelt | |||

Good luck! I had my right hip done in 2015 at 42. A combination of an ACL tear when I was 19, hip dysplasia, and construction work. "We've done four already, but now we're steady..." | |||

I'm sure it's quite nice to have this surgery in your rear view mirror, well done. I send in another prayer for a healthy and speedy recovery. I remember some recent surgery a few years back that required to keep me very stabilized and pain free, the nurse would jokingly come in and ask if I'm ready for one of her speciality cocktails. After administration of one, I had a very vivid hallucination that I thought I was back home and couldn't quite figure out when I painted my walls green  Regards, Will G. | |||
