@rostrevor Yes, that sounds just like me. I struggle with putting on underwear, pants, socks, etc, because of the pain in hip and groin. I guess it is arthritis, I guess. I don't know if it is the Eliquis. I was having terrible pains in that leg, and then found out about the extensive blood clot in that leg that needed surgery to remove it. And because I have the Fac5Leiden clotting factor, the doctor insists on Eliquis. But I truly hate taking it and worrying about hurting myself and bleeding. I sit in the car first, and then use my hand to lift my leg. It still hurts, but not as much if I try to lead with that leg. And I use biofreeze and a heat pad. But have you checked with the doctor that did your surgery to make sure everything is ok with the replacement?
