11 years ago (in my 50's) I had my right hip replaced. I was crippled, could barely walk even with a cane. 6 weeks after the surgery I was walking without pain. And to this day you'd never know I could barely walk. I worked at a hospital 2 years ago, I worked there for 3 years and walked 7 - 8 miles a day with zero pain. I am VERY pleased I had a total hip replacement. Do yourself a favor and get it done. The recovery time (a good 6 weeks) seemed long to me but is well worth it looking back.

Wow! So encouraging as I wait on my surgery date!
