Default Re: Finally Getting a New Hip!

You had to mention infection now didn't you! I know the instances are rare but here you are! I am having a custom built modular hip because I have hardware that needs to be removed that will leave holes in my femur, hence I have to have the full length incisions so not sure how muscle sparing that will be! I know the importance (and annoyance) of physio but will make sure I keep it up!!

Thanks for all the input folks, I really appreciate it!

Oh, and it is looking like I can get an epidural instead of having to go under general anesthetic!
