JK—thank you for your reply. I do have confidence in my surgeon. However I am afraid of the stem replacement. He tells me that it is a more complicated surgery than the total replacement. Right now the pain is tolerable. It’s the instability that concerns me as I’m afraid of a fall. Also having osteoporosis gives me more concern about falling. I will go back in April with more questions. I was hoping to get pros and cons from others who have had the same issue.

JK—yes it was a total hip replacement

@mcdora I can certainly understand your concerns. Since it appears as if this might be an issue that has not affected anyone here, you might want to consider trying a group on Facebook. After my knee replacement, I discovered at least a couple of very active groups who were discussing them. I am sure there are private groups that are also about hip replacements.
I'm sorry that apparently, no one here is familiar with this.
