(14,073 posts)26. Dear Bird!!!!! My brother has two great friends who both had their hips replaced after years of misery!!!
One woman got one new hip, the other gal, two
It was a FANTASTIC experience for both of them!! They were up and happily walking in a day or two!!
I have no doubt Mrs Bird will feel so much better when the pretty quick and straightforward surgery is over!!
TAKE HEART, GOOD SIR
KISSES TO MRS BIRD

Your wife has done everything to relieve this pain and as extensive as hip surgery is, I hope it's the answer

From personal experience, collapsed hip repair was a piece of cake...though I did not have the other issues.

Hip surgery has advanced a LOT in the past few years. My wife had it done yesterday, and was walking later in the day.
