Joe, that's fantastic! Exactly how I felt after my surgery. It's like you have a brand new hip/leg! I am so happy and I bet you are too!

Thanks Cindi, and yeah for those considering replacing a hip, it is the best way to relieve the awful bone-on-bone pain from degenerative arthritis. If you experience any groin pain - where you can't pinpoint or even come close to a cause - see your ortho Dr and get an xray of the hip.

I felt the same way after getting my knees replaced in 2022, although the recovery for a knee is a lot longer than a hip.

Joe
