Well coming up to Operation Date---Tomorrow- rightfully scared as my surgeon took a second look at my problem, ordered a hip/pelvic X-ray and there it was... what my first surgeon totally overlooked-above my damaged knee, my right hip is in extreme osteoporosis decay with a necrotic ball. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADRESSED foremost- I am beyond anger and disbelief , having suffered for over two years with pain and unnecessary surgeries-Warning to All!

@damewocane - I hear your frustration and totally understand. Is this a new surgeon that just found the osteoporosis? I am wishing you the best and hope you'll keep us posted on how things are going. Maybe this will be the one that ends all the pain. Hope so.

@damewocane I can imagine how upsetting this must have been, to have no one recognize the hip problems after all of that time. That's great that it finally was recognized and being addressed. I am a big advocate of second opinions for that reason.
I hope all goes well tomorrow, please keep us posted.
JK
