ok so I can't pretend it's not going to happen any longer as i have to be at the hospital in less than 12 hours. I'm resigned but frightened. Glad I stumbled across this forum it's been helpful.

don't worry all will be fine, I had mine 13 weeks ago and it feels great, my only problem is I now have excruciating pain in the other one so I'm booked in for my 2nd next month, I had a spinal block and some sleeping meds, I didn't feel a thing, and I woke up to see my hip joint ( I had asked to see it beforehand) so good luck,
regards,
Lynne.

yes I was diagnosed 3 years ago with cronicOA in both hips, I think the body knows just how much it can take at one time becausenwhile I was waiting for my first opp it was that hip that was agonising ,hardly any pain in the right one, but as soon as I recovered from the opp my other hip started to feel the same as the first did, so now I have to get it done, I'm not mobile at all, my surgeon said they are both buggared (his words lol)anyway I'm hoping that after this 2nd opp I might get some quality of life back,
regards,
Lynne.
