@marthaellen,, please dont let what you read here deter you from having your surgery... The Surgeon I went to had a great recommendations. and reviews. I know someone that had him do their hip and they are fine.. But I also was # 11 on the schedule for his surgery.. I didnt find that out till they were wheeling me in..ohhhh crap.. why are they doing so many a day.. Hes got to be tired by that time,, . and @beryl.. I went back and read so many of the posts to see if there is a similarity.. but some are Anterior and some are Posterior.. some are cemented and some are not.. but here is what I have learned,( not from what I have read here).. when the surgeons operate they move ligaments, tendons, muscles,,and also cut thru some of this,, Sooo with that being said,, this explains the MRI saying I have tears in the tendons,, and the quad strain.. so what about the nerves,, I am sure there is some damage to the nerves as well,, And @carolg I did not get a card or any info about it at all..but will be looking into it.. Just so tired of being in pain,, and mine is only 8 month,,I cant imagine years of this.. thanks everyone

@frister . Great reply. The card I'm talking about is a wallet size card and tells you whether the prosthesis is cemented or uncemented. It also gives you the product name and serial numbers. It was provided to me by my surgeon. On discharge from the hospital. Hope that helps. The second opinion I had last week told me that I may have had a neuroma develop when they cut through the nerves and muscles. Getting another CT scan done, yipeeee. A little tired of scans now. @marthaellen try not to be too frightened. If you think of all the replacement surgeries done world wide, there aren't really that many failures. I wish you well.
