@goseve I too have had bilateral hip replacements and I’m told that hip revisions are usually an option, but a more difficult procedure than the original surgery. I’ve been a lifetime athlete and ran long distance for 40 years. I gave up running a few short years ago because of a bad knee, but I still go out and jog short distances. I know that we are capable of fracturing our hips and I worry about it. Diagnosed with osteoporosis a few months ago primarily in my Forearm and wrists. No idea as to the hips because they could not be tested with the metal implants. My spine comes up normal. I began a weight and machine program about three weeks ago and I’m probably the weakest 76 year-old at the gym. Despite my lean athletic build, I can only leg press 30 pounds with both legs at the same time.. I have a long way to go. I am also using free weights for my arms and wrists. I began injecting Tymlos in late September and have gone off and back on several times. Side effects are troubling with vertigo, irritability, joint and bone pain. I feel like I am injecting poison into my body. After six months, if I don’t have significant improvement, I’ll stop the meds. I try to get out to the park to slow jog and walk, but I’m not going often enough. You might want to use some light ankle wraps when you’re walking to add to the weight-bearing effect. I also make a point of taking calcium, magnesium, and D3. K2. food is a challenge for me with chronic pancreatitis. That is probably largely responsible for the osteoporosis. I do not have a good feeling about continuing to take bone meds. Research revealed that the lab rats that were tested developed bone cancer at very high rates with the highest dose causing 87% of the male rats to develop bone cancer. Every one of these medication’s comes with side effects and for each individual that could be different. We each of us have some very important decisions to make.
