Wow and here I thought I was alone... Since August of 2017 Ive had 8 hip surgeries. 5 Hip replacements. 4 Hip spacers. 4 PICC Lines. The 5th hip was looking good then after the 10th day a hematoma bursted and of course I got sepsis. 104.5 temp is no fun. On March 4th 2019, they removed my 5th hip and decided I needed a year off. So I have no left hip at all and can walk somewhat with a 3 inch lift on the bottom of my left shoe. The ups and downs are not fun. I have almost normal blood work. CRP 11 sed is 40. They check me monthly and monthly the number decrease. I feel somewhat normal at the moment. I was always fatigued with the infections. Plus the Vanco twice a day is no fun. All we can do is fight the good fight.
