Yes! Mine started as groin pain and soon I was limping. I ended up needing a complete hip replacement on my right hip. Thankfully, my blood counts were stabilized and kept in check, so only one hip was affected.

No, it was sharp pain, not so much in the back as the groin. I literally could barely walk. I limped and could hardly put any weight on my right leg. Eventually, my hip started to dislocate, and I would hear this awful clunking sound coming from it. The hip replacement solved the problem.

Got a text from the hospital they've cancelled my appointment again.
