Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 There is something drastically wrong with your hip, I had my 4th revision last November 10. and now its so good, I can see now the 3rd was never quite right. I didn't know what to expect, so assumed it was normal, Please please don't wait until it pops out its horrendous.trust me a needle doesn't even help that pain. what to advise you to do.. I don't know if you have insurance or what but I would go get another opinion and another family doctor, if I am worried or sick I can see my doctor today, if I am worried about my joints I can speak with either the hip or the shoulder guy no problems. It sounds to me as if they are fobbing you off, what is the hip aspiration for again ?? refresh my memory I think it might be infection. in whcih case you need that done now. When you are in great pain or really sick, I have always had a spokes person to help me out, when my hip kept slidding in and out after my 1st revision, my mum came with to the hospital where the surgeon was working, took the x-rays with us, and then she asked one of the staff if they had a spare bed I could lay on, while waiting for the surgeon to come out in between cases, but her thought was to get me a bed then I wouldn't have to go home, and it worked he saw me, the x-rays and had me admitted there and then. have you got some one that will help you ? I don't really know what else to suggest but I sure hope you get a solution real quick, the joints are great when they work well but when they don't they are horrid. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
