¡Me siento genial! Tengo muy poco dolor y puedo caminar todo el día sin cansarme. El otro día le mencioné a alguien que me acababan de reemplazar la cadera hace 12 semanas y no me creyeron. Me muevo tan bien y sin dolor, que siento que he recuperado mi vida!!!! Ojalá la recuperación de todos fuera tan buena como la mía...
Congratulations John, good to hear your positive news.
Cheers Richard
¡Excelente noticia, John, bien hecho!
Todos nosotros los hippies nos sentimos genial un rato después de la operación.
¡Recuperamos nuestras vidas!
Julie 😊
Love hearing positive out comes! Don't see these posts of great progress very often 😊 I'm 7 weeks just started walking last week and am feeling great, always good to hear the good side of hip replacments
Great news, glad you're doing so well!
Fabulous!

Buenos días, John,
¡Fantásticas noticias! ¡Bien hecho y sigue con lo que te ha hecho mejorar tanto! Ahora estoy a 7 meses de la operación y camino absolutamente bien.

Hi John,
So nice to hear successful stories like yours
I too did very well. At some point I will need my other hip replaced, and I won't hesitate to get it done.
Congrats and wishing you the best!
Hi John,
Congratulations, I'm at nine weeks and know how you feel.
Yesterday I arranged to have my bed,settee and toilet raisers taken back and for the first time I began to feel normal again and went for a long walk.
I'm going back to work on Monday on a phased return I.e 1 week on and a week off followed by 2 weeks on followed by a week off and then back full time.
It's so good to be pain free and get your life back again. I've started to enjoy walking which I hated before as it hurt so much.
I still do all my exercises every day as I've got into the routine and I still use a stick as a precaution.
On the whole it's great.
Hola John
Me alegra mucho que todo haya salido tan bien, es agradable escuchar las buenas experiencias, ya que he leído tantas diferentes en este foro que me he asustado y he desistido de hacerme el mío. Xx
Hola joellynn28
Entiendo exactamente lo que quieres decir, no hay suficiente buena retroalimentación aquí. He escuchado tantas cosas malas que me he convencido de no hacerme la mía. Me alegra que estés tan bien xx
That has given me the push I need to have mine done. I'm scared but I have no life I can't walk far so don't socialise at all apart from struggle to work
Wow what a wonderfully positive post to read especially as I'm still debating about having mine done at age 42.
Oh I'm so jealous lol I can't wait to have my hip done as I don't have a life now. I'm just nervous of the op as I have never had one
Hola Kimberley
sé exactamente cómo te sientes. Tengo 37 años y he tenido problemas de cadera toda mi vida. Todavía estoy debatiendo si debería hacerlo o no, ya que ha habido muchos comentarios negativos aquí y no muchos buenos, por lo que es agradable escuchar los aspectos positivos. Espero que tomes la decisión correcta xx
Dear Keren
I've been reminding on this forum for several weeks that a bad outcome is far from inevitable and have mentioned my own experience in case it helps you and others.
I had to wait about five years before I was allowed a hip operation but I was so bad that I could not continue to carry on with my self employment job.
Yes it was a frightening decision to gave to make especially as my wife af the time was less than supportive, but if you need a hip replacement there really is no alternative if you truly want an end to the pain
To continue if you truly want to end the pain and get your life back and who wouldn't then you should just move on and book your surgery.
Worried about the recovery, of course you are. I left hospital with two sticks only because they insisted but put one aside as soon as I was home . The second one only was used for a day or so and I was walking a mile a day within literally days and a couple of miles shortly afterwards.
Driving a manual car at six weeks and back to work at the same tine.
Just be confident and careful and try not to push faster than is right for you....only you can decide how fast you go as we are all different!
Good luck. Richard
