Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Hi guys, A few weeks ago I wrote and asked if anyone had problems with some pain in your thighs following your THR. Well I did go to the Dr. last week for my annual check-up and asked him about it. And he said yes that some people do feel this, it is normal. Afterall we have a foreign body embedded into our bones. He said that more than likely we feel it when the barometric pressure changes, (when the weather is changing). So Guys, we have become walking barometers !!!! Everything else was fine in the hip area. Now my shoulders are rubbing bone on bone. GREAT !!! And they are trying to ban Celebrex !!! Has anyone out there had shoulder replacement? My Dr. wasn't very encouraging. He said the hip replacement was a piece of cake compared to the shoulder replacement. Is he right?

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Hi Doris, I had a Hip and Knee replacement on my right side The hip I had four years and knee three years I think the Hip is a hard operation I feel this thing in me and it hurts alot My knee is a lot better I say the Knee was a piece of cake compare to the Hip My regular dr told me having the shoulder replacement is a hard operation and not to have it done I wish he would have said that about my Hip operation. Well you have a nice day. SusieDoris Provost <dorisprovost2003@...> wrote: Hi guys, A few weeks ago I wrote and asked if anyone had problems with some pain in your thighs following your THR.
