Glad to hear your hip has worked so well and for so long! I will be thrilled if my titanium and plastic revisions, done in 2012, last that long. The original chromium and cobalt ones were rejected within 4 years and had to be replaced. These implants also have been spectacular - just saw my surgeon this morning, and he was happy to hear I can easily go sledding with my grandsons - told me it was wonderful exercise. I just hope the rest of my body holds up as well!
