Drive-by... My hip is abit different than that one... Seems the spike is alot longer in mine.. The problem I have is if I bend past 90 degrees at the hip,,, mine pops out.. For the last 10 years,,, Miss J has had to put my socks on, seeing touching your toes is past 90 Degrees...
But the problem I have is where they put that nylon cup into your pelvis bone,,, mine only has a thin amount of bone left behind it. If it were to pierce thru into my bladder and that wood be a mess.
Right now you can see in the Xrays that the cup is worn out and sloppy as hell.. My legs kind of floats around in the cup instead of the tight fit.. I can feel it if I hang my leg and move it around,, I feel it moving around alot. I think to me,, the hardest part is going to learn to trust it and bend past 90 degrees.. I don't believe in PT but I may have to go to one or two classes just so they can show me how to bend it that far.. 10-12 years of babying it has me scared to go past the 90... Well, I go in on the 17th I think. Knock on Wood..
Sounds like your doing good over there Mister Hook.. Keep on keeping on and Keepem Green
