Guest guest Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Greetings all. I.m new here. I recently had my hip replaced for the second time in less than a year. (Depuy) It was never right from the get go. I also have ITP,which in my case is a chronic condition. The toxic fluid which built up around my hip caused me to come out of remission and spend several(anxious and unwanted) days in the hospital prior to my revision surgery. I was wondering if anyone had some advice or suggestions on how to cope with this mental,physical,and financial nightmare. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Dupuy has been recalled and all the lawyers here in MI are asking you to call them and not settle until you do. Sounds like you are entitled to some money. Might help financially anyway. See an attorney. There is a time limit I think. Donna R Hip revision Greetings all. I.m new here.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks Donna, I have done just that and the ball is rolling Just hard to believe how one thing can lead to another! Since I been signed off work by my dr. I have since lost my health ins and prescription coverage. Believe me it's not easy finding coverage for such exsiting conditions. And as for PT my dr. says his procedures dont require pt! > > Dupuy has been recalled and all the lawyers here in MI are asking you to call them and not settle until you do.
