Title: One year anniversary
Post by: curtieman1 on July 20, 2013, 04:14:20 AM
One year ago today I had my left hip resurfaced by Dr. Scott Anseth at  Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis. Happy to say that everything is good. Still have some muscle soreness but nothing like the pain from OA. Have my year checkup on Tuesday. Thanks to all the Hippie Veterans on here to help a person when we might have some concerns to help us through, it's been a great source of comfort at times to see that what I was going through others have been there & gone through it. I try to walk or bike half hour to forty five minutes a day to keep cholesterol & tryglycerides in line. Have started to doctor with right hip now that has OA too. Was hope to get a few more years from that side but now know there is a solution to the pain.
Thanks again Pat & everyone here.
Curtis
