Hi @cet58, welcome. 24 surgeries is a lot. Dealing with infections is tough. I moved your message to this existing discussion:
- What to do after multiple surgeries from hip replacement?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/what-would-you-do-hip-replacement/

I did this so you can read previous posts and connect easily with other members like you.

Are you recovering from a recent surgery now? Are you currently dealing with a lingering infection?
