Hi

I'm sorry you are finding things so hard. It's bad enough dealing with health problems but then having to wait for treatment while life is passing you by makes it even harder. I'm sorry you have such a lot of problems with your hips and your knees. Are you anywhere near St Thomas or have you just heard they are great, if you are near could you transfer to them? I hope things went well with the GP

I've got a chronic ear infection but have a lot of support right now so am coping. Do you have much support?

I've not looked back since I had my hip replacements. I hope all goes well for you and that you get your operations soon.

thank you for your email

Hi scotty I am sorry you are having such a hard time right now. All I can say is hold on to the thought of the future once you have had your operations. This time will pass. Make some plans for your future when you are fitter...book a holiday or something. That will give you something to look forward to.

Let us know how it all goes.
