Hip replacement date

Hello All,

It’s been a long time since I’ve been on here, I finally got into sheltered housing last April & got a lovely little bungalow I’m over the moon with. It was in very good content with decent carpets curtains, and blinds left & got a decorating/other grant from the council that I wasn’t expecting. Because I’m so much happier here, after a grotty unsafe flat for 7 years, I’ve been getting people in to weed the main small garden at the front & trying to learn about plants🌱🪻

Anyway finally saw the surgeon in December 2023, right hip is bad & needs replacing, but the waiting list is at least 18 months.

Is anyway else on Idacio injections & has delivery by Calea Homecare? Though they’re better than the other private company when I was a different biologic (can’t recall name) why do they e-mail you with a specific date to deliver? It’s almost never convenient, I have lots of other medical appointments, bloods etc., & many end up being on a Thursday!!

Can’t they give you three or four to pick from & you confirm which? You have to tie up a whole day, plus they’ve been arriving a lot earlier than the 2 hour window given that morning?
