it’s becoming very real now! I need both hips replaced, my left is going first as only 10% mobility left even though my right is more painful.
I have chosen Superpath to avoid muscle and tendon cut through all being well. A bit of a trek from Scotland to Leicester where there is an experienced surgeon but hoping it’ll be worthwhile.
I had wanted to lose some weight before but sadly it’s a lot harder with reduced mobility so still sitting with a BMI of 30.
Any tips for things I should be getting ready now, I’ve been practicing sleeping on my back, ordered a hip ice pack. Will take that bin bag for getting in and out the car coming back. Got some long pull over my head dressed as expecting bending over and pulling on trousers will not be possible for a few days.
