Title: total fusion
Post by: lumonya on December 27, 2008, 06:40:13 PM
Hi again
Hope christmas has been good.   Thanks for the replies I got to my first posting. I live on the other side of the "pond"...London in fact, so after checking with the website I decided to see to see Mr McMinn in Birmingham.  He was very nice and straightforward.  My my hip joint has fused so the surgery will not be  simple and he will need the option of being able to do a THR if I was to go ahead with the surgery.  Second complication I have is about 10 years ago I had an allergy to earings and watches so that is a worry as well.  I am due to have to have the tests in the new year. 
Anyone out there had total fusion of the hip joint and then had a successful BHR ???
