      I promise you there's no magic just hang in there your getting closer to it healing, I can't do a straight leg Raise , I don't have to lift my leg with my hand anymore,  and the  pain just went away, but my right hip I know it had some of the same problems, I'm waiting now to find out what's going on.

    I wouldn't blame anyone who had a bad outcome from their first op not going through it again,I wouldn't either.

    As others I'm waiting for a second THR next year,BUT I'm doing everything I can to avoid it..although i probably will go ahead with it..scaty thought !

      I had mine seven months ago.Physio has shown me the psoas muscle that is deep inside the thigh.It actually starts at the ilo sacral spine then runs through the hip then meet then the  psoas runs down the middle of the thigh.

      For me I still can't lift the leg to get into the car.or laying flat on my back cannot lift the op leg up off the table.So tomorrow I'll see the surgeon.I also have a medical report from the UK about this problem post op. The solution is to release that muscle. 

      First I'll need a c scan to locate the place where the problem is.smile

      Same with me Lillie, I had no other choice but to go forth with my two THRs.  Avascular Necrosis, death of the joints.
