Welcome!!! This is a fun group that your about to join..all of us have had some sort of hip surgery, THR or Resurfacing, or about to have surgery...or in a lot of hip pain...some of us dont know what route to go and what surgery to have..on this board we wont tell you what to do becuse that is a very personal decision, but we will tell you what the choices are and what path we took to become pain free or to become pain free...I also want to warn you that we have decided that laughter is the best medicine for us, so you may find some of our conversations a little nutty..but boy do we have lots of good laughs here..fighting is not tolerated..so please join and have lots of fun..post your pics of yourself, family, pets, home..whatever you like..we are sort of like a family here...anyway..Welcome!!!!
