Guest guest Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 , I had my left hip done in September and this operation will be for my right hip. I don't know if it's possible to " revise " a resurfaced hip but I don't think so. Anyway the first one has been great (no pain) but I haven't been able to " test-drive " it like most people because my right hip has deteriorated so much that I still have to use a cane for that side. This time I'll be free! Thanks, Barb > Barb.......good luck on Tuesday! I'm from the Boston area and am very > nervous about options for my left hip.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Barb.......good luck on Tuesday! I'm from the Boston area and am very nervous about options for my left hip. Are you repeating the resurfacing on the same hip and how functional has the first procedure been for you. I'm hoping you've been able to be physically active. Thanks.....
