''Great news for hip resurfacing.''

Great news is right!  He's gotten 15 years and going strong out of one HR.  I've got two of them.  I'm good for at least 30 years!

Like your logic.

[Manofword]

That's the kind of testimonial I want to hear! In 15yrs I'll be 73 and hopefully still competing in triathlons!

[PattyM]

Wow!
That's  great news ;D
Mine is only 6 mos old but I am getting a second
in 2 weeks.
Thrilled to know about the great results. I guess I should be good for
30 years too!!

Mine was done in 2000 and still great so if my right hip gets done this winter , on your 15 yr result Mark ,  then I'll be still racing my car at 84 yrs --- if I pass my medical each year , that is  ;D

[shoraztri]

That's HUGE !!!!!!- 15 years and to be the original BHR is a massive testament. Has given me lots of confidence for an extended "run " with mine , - will take place early July 2014 this year. :D ;)

[RobMsport]

I will soon be in my 18 year anniversary , of Mr McMinn's BHR for my left hip on 20th November this year and 3 year anniversary on my right hip BHR . Both great and am still competing in motorsport
