Thanks lady! You had a revision to one of your hips first prosthesis? I will miss golf but could do an arm only swing if necessary. I will do my best with rehab. I am living with the dislocated spacer as I have no confidence it won’t come out again if fixed. Thre is no acetabular cup with the temporary spacer. However, I am anxious for the new hip to be put in. My best to you and thanks.

Actually both prostheses have been replaced, one of them twice. The first round of rebuilds was a recall due to metal poisoning. The last tweak was to put in a bigger ball because the darn thing dislocated- sitting in a chair! Now they're great. Just dod 9 hours of gardening and mowing today.
