Boy, I needed to hear your story and thank you for sharing!! I am going to try and cross country ski prior to surgery so I will be less likely to fall post surgery.

Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions. This surgery seems to have a lot of different results. I went into in the best physical shape possible. I planned it in advance and was treated with a daily injection for two years (part before and part after surgery) to help my bone strength (osteopenia/osteoporosis). Unlike most people, I had very little pain from the surgery and didn't need to be on narcotics.

Good luck!
