Very, very scared to have knee surgery and hip surgery

Hip surgery is the easiest one. The pain you are feeling right now will be 100 percent gone. You will just be dealing with the actual surgery pain

P.S. Thanks for the encouragement, I will likely need a knee job after the hip surgery. (Oh well..) The knee is pretty well gone after about 50 years since I had some cartilage removed after some very not nice person knocked me down in a high school basketball game and I twisted my knee and the doctor then said he removed some torn cartilage. The doctor I see now said he goes from the top down. 🙂 First the hip, then the knee. So I know I have some recuperation ahead of me. A little scared, but the time has come that I cannot avoid it and I hope and think I found a good surgeon.

I sure hope so. However, I will bring up the length of leg to the doctor, he seems to be pretty up on these things. Thanks for your encouragement, I have been resisting for years but the time has come, cannot function with the pain any more. (Thanks.)
