Well, today is the day I get my hip replaced. I'm just an old broken down fossil I guess.
See y'all when I can get back online
Good luck, the harder you work the better your recovery!
Good luck. A lot of people have had fantastic results with joint replacement surgery. Just follow your doctor's advice, and you'll be better than ever in short order.
Good Luck. It will pay off in the long run !!!

Here's to a speedy recovery, make sure the meds are worn off before you start posting again.

Good luck. I have a friend that had both hips replaced a couple of years ago. He was up and walking the day after both surgeries. The big thing seems to be following the post-op instructions and the therapy afterwards.
Surgery went well, thanks for the well wishes. Y'all be great
Good news. Speedy recovery.
Glad to hear it went well, Drifter ... I can only imagine how brutally painful recovery is for a hip replacement. It just sounds like it would hurt like hell. Did they use a nerve block? Hopefully they will set you up properly with a pain management plan. They are getting so stupid about pain medication that they are allowing people to go through unnecessary extreme pain because the government wont let the Doctors do their job the way they trained for years and years to do. Get well fast, Man.
You're old. Not obsolete! Wish you a speedy recovery Drifter!
Thanks again Y'all
Sammy, pain is minimal right now, just your normal post operative stuff. I know people that went through this surgery and recovered real fast so I'll let you know
Glad to hear everything went well Drifter!
Good to hear, speedy recovery

If they gave you a nerve block (or dilaudid), you will believe you may be ready to go bowling this weekend. You will know over the next two days, and I pray those days aren't as painful as i am fearing for you. When they ask me if I have any allergies ... Yes, I do I am allergic to pain, it causes me to break out in loud screams, cursing, and hollers.
Any update? Are you sharing weird news stories with any cute nurses this morning?
