Don't worry Pauline, Easy to say I know but these surgeons are excellent, the care you will get sympathetic and you will be amazed at how you feel a month or two post op. Things are put in place to avoid complications and it is a common op now.
I am 5 weeks post op on my second thr and feeling great, same as I did the first time 10 years ago on my other hip. Good luck to you, though I doubt very much you'll need it.
Regards
Steve
