Hi s77
I too lost my right hip in 2018 due to multiple infections. And yes it is life changing in all aspects of life. We keep going and giving up is not option. We keep plugging along.

I am living without a left hip a little over 2 years. I'm so sorry you've had to go through this at such a young age. I'm 72 and get around on 2 crutches, sometimes only one crutch for short distances, also use a walker and wheelchair at times. I agree it is so life altering! The only real exercise I can do now is exercise bike, which I do daily, but I sure miss not hiking and really walking! May I ask how you get around? Wishing you all the best! Cindy
