Now for my little surgery story: I had severe OA in my left hip, but held on to my own joint over 20 years hoping it would go away or technology would improve. I used a lot of alternative and western medicine therapies and the orthopods that looked at my x-rays were impressed that I was still as active as I was. But this June after a surfing trip the pain never relented, and I ended up with a bad limp and a cane, and knew the time had come.
