I know that same pain. I went back to core who I have been following up w since 7/17 when I had a partial left hip. The new doc I saw had no clue but was working his way thru infection etc. The staff was HORRIBLE as I tried to convey what wasn't being done I received a call FM their patient advocate who proceeded to aggravate me insinuate etc so I left their care but left a note on my chart indicating how their system was failing and basically fired them said I would not return EVER and I got a certified dismissal letter instead of concern from anyone. No one had my results when I would go in but I still got a level 4 charge. My appts were always not scheduled in the right places for testing. It was frustrating. Onward right? I had already gotten my records xrays and have seen dr hedley. So far so good. Going in tomorrow to transition to a full hip and a new 'Head" to the top of the prosthesis ( head of femur). He said it was too big. I am praying this resolves the pain I have had since 2017. It looks like this will be easy compared to my first. Poss 1 night stay, new approach (superior) which decreases muscle damage. Everything about my post OP is different..things that make sense and I am excited but frightened as I now have a swallowing disorder poss from a stroke i may have had which caused me to injure myself and not addressed at the time. Will be going to mayo i hope for that. But i have been coined as high risk for aspiration. So everybody out there say a little prayer for me please? I will let you know how it goes. I pray this works so that you can try the doc I have now. Wonderful atmosphere both the office and the hospital. So far I am pleased with the direction this is going. Will check back later. (Fingers crossed) hopefully with no pain.😎

@binblessed - So glad to hear that you have a new doctor you are happy with and that things seem to be going in the right direction. Is your hip revision scheduled for tomorrow (6/11/19)? I'm sending you all good wishes for a quick and pain-free recovery.
