Thank goodness that they could sort you out so quickly, especially as I saw on the news recently that loads of people have been waiting for a hip replacement for a year or more as a result of the pandemic. Wishing you a speedy recovery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted February 27, 2021 #16331 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) Hi Selbourne. If it's a fracture the its sort of straight away. Having said that because they recommended a total replacement due to my age and fitness i had to wait a couple of days for the big cheese to do it. If I had been 85 say they would have done a partial, ie just the ball and not the cup. That doesn't last as long .

Sorry to hear of your accident, hope you are not in to much discomfort, but pleased to learn that after the age of 85 they will still sort my ball out! very comforting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My GP did tell me it wouldn’t t hurt now and again but where do you draw the line? Lovely sunny day again today, cold start though. Just where is your now and again? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can empathise - some years ago our rescue greyhound decided to run after a cat. Unfortunately I forgot to let go of the lead, causing me to be dragged along the ground, with consequent bruising to my face and arm. It was then that I decided to let go of the lead! As a precaution I went to A&E for a check up, but the medical staff were more interested to know about the condition of the cat! PS: Cassie, the greyhound, strolled home an hour later, with a "butter won't melt in my mouth" look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avril Good morning Avril and Annie. Been up since 0530 when the dog decided it was time to have his breakfast! Luckily I get to go back to bed with a cup of tea after seeing to him. He goes back to sleep and I don’t! Foggy start here. So hoping the sun does appear as was gorgeous yesterday. Gill x 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollyjess Posted February 28, 2021 #16350 Share Posted February 28, 2021 So sorry to hear about your accident Jean.A similar thing happened to me a few years ago. I was taking daughters Labrador for a walk. She pulled me into some bushes as a result of which I dislocated and fractured my left shoulder! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
