You absolutely made the right decision! Completely normal to be anxious, but once it’s over and the pain in your hip is gone, you will feel so much better!! I began my “joint replacement journey” at age 59. Im now 63, have undergone 2 shoulder replacements, a partial knee replacement and a thumb joint replacement. In the fall i will have the other thumb joint replaced. I was anxious before each, but don't regret any of the surgeries. Please update us post surgery. You got this
