RLS and a hip that needs to be replaced because it has no cartilage left.

Hi, that sounds painful. When you have surgery make sure that they give you an RLS friendly anti nausea medication such as Zofran. Many others exacerbate symptoms . Good luck.x

Hi Carolie, I can sympathize. I had both of my hips replaced in 2019 (at different times). I was very concerned about how I would do with the RLS. I shared information from RLS.org with my surgeon and anesthesiologist. And I found that I didn't have a lot of trouble. I was walking the same day after surgery, and climbing stairs the next day, so whenever I needed to move I could. I hope your outcome goes as well. Just wanted to reassure you. You'll be glad that you had it done.
