Artificial hip.....worthwhile?

[Testosterone boy]

Let me see....woman ran light on April 20th. That was a while ago.


Strenght is pretty good but the pain is getting awfully old.


I hear you can get a new hip for 20,000 and some are pretty good at it.

I tried a cane thinking it would help. It was almost worthless though steady use would make it more efficient.

Not sure what that means.

I hired a lawyer to do what they do.


Three insurance companies. I was 100% innocent. They won't pay until they have to. Colorados new insurance laws.

My credit is already trashed. Life is grand.

I don't think artificial hips last a lifetime so you want to put it off as long as possible. I want to say 20 years for some reason.

Sick lady. I feel sorry for her.


The body is important but the mind is more so.

Thanks for the info.


I want to discuss the hip. Not the accident or the woman or a suit.

Approximately 10% of total hip replacements will fail in the first ten years, and another 30 to 40% over the next ten years.

replacement hips dont get you back to 100%...but theyre good when you have an old person who is arthritic etc etc etc and their hips are totally fubar

rehab and drugs are likely the way to go, tboy

I do PT twice a week, exercise daily, use a Tenze and a massage machine, analgesics, take supplements, and use heat pads and ice.


Not sure what you meant with drugs. Gee....you are a pharmacist. Help a bro out?
