When did you start to forget you had your hip resurfacing on regular basis?

I’d like to know when you started to forget about having the surgery or if you never have.

Currently it’s all I think about at 8 weeks!

Somewhere between 8 months and 1 year.  Don’t give it a second’s thought.  I’m only reminded when I have to explain to TSA the thing in my pocket that looks like a grenade.  Now I have one in each pocket!   :) :)

Pretty similar for me - coming up 7 years and 11 1/2 year anniversaries. Honestly do not even think about it in my daily life except when I am at the airport and set off the detectors like a Christmas tree, or on the golf course when lightening starts - I have a fear of being a magnet!
If you are mid to large size bone structure, there is nothing to fear about your femoral head.

Us bilateral Hippies do resemble a Tesla coil.  I’ll start being more careful during thunderstorms.  Thanks, Packman!   :D

[/I’m just over 5ft 8 (5.85) and received at 52mm BHR. I was quite surprised I received a 52mm as I’m on the smaller side and thought it would be a 50mm as discussed initially with the surgeon.
