Has anyone ever had to have both the knee AND same side hip done at the same time??

I just found out today that is my imminent situation and i dont know how in the world Im going to physically and mentally get through this....especially 8 months after having my rotator cuff done!

Its simply NOT FAIR!

Has ANYONE experienced this? Id like to hear how and what to feel and expect.

    I also have an unfair situation..after a hip replacement 2years ago I have the need for the other hip to be replaced and most likely both knees. The surgeon said he'd do them one at a time.

      I had TKR on one knee five years ago. I would certainly not have them both done at the same time.
