Bilateral Resufacing Scheduled May 10th

[Guest guest]

Hi Everybody,

Two weeks from today I'll be in L.A. with my sister and two of my

three daughters having Mother's Day dinner. My dad, who has

accompanied on my intial evaluation, will also be there. I am the

first case Monday morning, yeah, with Dr. S.!

This Thursday I see the internist to insure that I am fit for lenghty

time under general anesthesia. (I'm am sure to pass.)

From reading the posts, it appears that sleeping and getting up are a

great challenge for the first month or so. I am thinking of renting

a reclining chair that lifts up for easy standing. Has anyone tried

one?

This site has given me an overwhleming amount of useful information.

I am adapting what seems to apply to me.

I have been ever so releived to find out that my bilat hip OA is

secondary to congenital hip dyplasia. Twenty years ago I had to put

my german shepard down for this same condition. Does this me I'm a

pure breed? Smile
