Hi. Sorry to hear the problems you are having. I went into having a left hip replacement and it fell apart. Went back in to having a hip revision which went well but 4 days before going home I had a lot of pain and went to the hospital and had a big infection and was told they have to take the hip out. I was shocked when my surgeon told me since I had a hip replacement on my right hip and had no problem. I also developed a drop foot on my left side. It has been very difficult since I get groin pain when I walk. I have to take antibiotics for the rest of my life. I did have a shoe lift put on and I feel better because it balances you out. I also have a problem with my left rotator cuff which gives me pain but I can’t do anything now since I need both hands on the walker.
I asked my surgeon about getting another hip in the future and gave hope that I can but I need to lose weight. I was also advised by another orthopedic surgeon to go to the Mayo Clinic since they deal with problems like this. It is always best to go for a second opinion. I’m getting a little better but it takes time. I hope for you nothing but the best. You take care🙏

Hi Justin I to have a drop foot and no left hip on the same side. I spoke with my surgeon and he told me if I lose enough weight he will give me a hip. I was told by another orthopedic to go to Mayo Clinic where they would give the best advice. I will get an opinion from them once I can feel better. I had surgery 8 months ago and trying to heal. Wishing you all the best
