hi there, I am investigating a new resurfacing device by Mr McMinn which is particularly for females who have developed metal allergies.  it is a Ceramic on Metal and apparently there are 19 people with them already.  is there anyone on here with one and how have you found it?  Any info gratefully received.  thanks,
Sal

Patience is hard for us. It seems required, now though - keep the faith, you'll get things rolling soon.

Sal I'm sorry that the labs are prolonging your suffering. It will be worth it in the end though

Sal you don't have to appologise for sounding off we all understand how you feel as we've all gone through some kind of hip problem so we can really empathise with you.

Sal,
      thats great news! I hope the scan comes back clear too! Referred pain could ,ean that its something else like your back for example but for some reason you feel it in your hip.
