Sadly I also have severe OA in both hips. Been told I'll have to have them both replaced within 2 treats. That was 12 months ago but my husband's ankles are worse. They can't have a joint replacement, it's too late for that. All that can be done is for them to be fused. He's had 1 done this February just gone and the other is scheduled for this coming Feb. We both see the same specialist so it was him who decided who was treated first and basically hubby was told that if he left it until both my hips had been done, it would be too late for fusion and nothing would be able to be done. So that kind of settled it really. Both diagnosed with multiple joint, severe OA within 6 weeks of each other. Guess we were simply too active in our youth as well as having the genes for it. But thank goodness we were active and exceptionally fit for all those years. Good memories.
Left doing the hospital. Too busy, so with our (other) health issues it was safer for me to see a doctor on Tuesday. We'll take it from there.
