(1 & 2)A Total bilateral first surgery, dropped at Rehab. Could not do anything because the femur nerve got compressed in left leg. Nine months out with heavy medication the nerve started to regenerate. (3) Right hip was fractured and pelvic from being dropped in the shower, right hip revised and started taking her off the heavy narcotics. (4) Five years out came down with Cobalt / chromium poision in Left hip. (5) Four years later Cobalt / Chromium poison with two different staph infections in Right hip; complete unit removed and madical spacer implanted. Nine week later they implanted a whole new unit. It has been 3 years now and Cobalt went from 17.6 down to 0.03 . Honestly, I really do not know how we made it through all of it ! She gets around but not well and is only 65 years old. If we had it to do over I do not think she would have had any of it done!
