warm welcome to this hippie forum ...
May I ask why you need a 3rd Hip replacement on same side? The first ne you got was when you were 20 and now you are 49 ... that is almost 30 years elapsed - did it need replacement due to wear and tear? when was the last time you had your thr -
I am so sorry that you have to go through it again -
Please, if you want, tell us more about yourself ...
big warm hug

I had my 1st and only THR 2 weeks short of my 20th birthday, right after 3 semester exems - had to go party and a drunk driver hit me head on and get this, driver got out of the wreck and ran away from the scene. Our differences build from there, instead of living a good life I had to hold back..wait missing the big part, in 1977 I did not get a metal hip. Doctors did a closed reduction, so from 77 to 2000 I was grinding bone on bone. But I still liked to play B ball and go dancing, the Darvocets helped but just took the edge off. Lots of things I wanted to try worried me so I feel I didn't fulfill myself, sounds like you did, I'm happy for you. Sounds like you are one of those driven people who won't let a little thing like health issues hold you back, stories like yours inspire me to try harder. I know you needed the support but it turns out you've given me the support, thank you.

Another kiwi. Have had 3 right THR (2 of which were revised cups due to loosening) on one side. First 1 at 28, which was 25 years ago.
Just wanted to say that there is new technology in the wings ie totally new hip socket made from titanium using the 3D technology in Christchurch.
My left THR is 14 years old and it's a metal on metal. Back to see my OS for some test results - I've got weird symptoms with it.
Be interested to see how you get on 😊
