I’m in ny. Had it done here .. my surgeon told me if I had another surgery and it got infected that they might have to amputate my leg.. I don’t like him he is rude and really could have done things differently. I really don’t even know where to start in looking for a surgeon that can help me. The only other second opinion I had didn’t want to touch my case either. I feel like if I had money things would be different they would want to try and help me! I don’t know it’s probably better to stay this way is long as I can keep doing what I’m doing i should be ok ... just getting use to the limp has been hard for me, people always want to know what happened to me cause I use a cane at my age.

I will be moving back to Ontario Canada in the next few months. All our family is there and I’m looking for a new surgeon there hopefully to review everything and come up with more or better options.
Your surgeon sounds awful. Mine has compassion but feels he has done everything correctly from his standpoint. He said he doesn’t want to do any more surgery on me.
If I could get the leaking stopped I am willing to live with the limp and the pain. Just can’t fathom living without the hip. You have my greatest admiration.
