cheryl99,
Again, I really appreciate your time in sharing your knowledge. I am still being evaluated (for another 2-1/2 months) to determine whether my prosthetic hip joint needs to be removed. It all depends on whether they caught the infection in time with debridement surgery and subsequent 6-weeks of daily antibiotic infusions.
Your testimony about living without one hip has been very comforting to me as someone who dreads the thought of possible infections in the future. I wish you the very best, jbro
