Hi linda: My legs the side of them still feeld numb. Try and see if you can go to a pain Dr. They may be able to help you. Every case is different. I do hope you can get some answers to your problem.

Do keep me posted ok. My e-mail is roro1390@...

Now my family Dr has me LYRICA. It is for the diabetic neuropathy. As I can take to many meds as I am on blood thinners for the rest of my due to the aortic valve replacement.

Love Rosie

Are you in fact saying that you have not been diagnosed with degenerative osteoarthritis of the hip? What exactly has your doctor told you that you have? I'm sorry but this one has me alternately scratching my head or wanting to ask your doctor why he would insist on going to these extreme measures to save a hip that can't be saved. To put a young woman through this many surgerys when one little THR or Resurfacing would give her back her life seems almost like he sees you as a challenge. You stated that if you could hold off on a THR/BHR you would be thrilled. I think that is because you do not yet realize how amazingly easy it really is. The one thing most of us think to ourselves after surgery is this..."why did I wait so long?".
