Hi@johnboy2323
Just want to say welcome to the group. Looking at your story I would have the dr do a aspiration (draw fluid from hip) for infection. My husband had the problem with pain in his left leg after his left hip was replaced in Jan 2015. They did a aspiration and found he had a infection. He had the hip removed a spacer put in and was on 6 wks iv antibiotics. The spacer is in for 3 months. He now goes in Jan 31st for his new hip. Try asking the Dr to do that. Hope it helps.

This is what I keep googling and researching. I keep wondering if it’s a deep infection. Thanks for sharing this, we could definitely benefit from checking further.
