[QUOTE="Red Fred, post: 6510843, member: 189"] After a visit to the GP to arrange a cortisone injection for my hip, things seem top have escalated. I was sent to see a consultant yesterday thinking it was just to have the injection, but he made me have a couple of new x rays, manipulated the joint then said he would not let me have a jab, but I would have to have the hip replaced. He said it would take a couple of months for a place, then 2 or 3 nights in and 2-3 months recovery. It all sounds a bit drastic as it is more of a niggle than a real pain. He wanted me to decide there and then, but I said I would have to think about arranging help for the farm and talk it over with Mrs Fred. I wondered whether anyone had had it done and how long it took to get back in action. I'm 56, which he said was still on the young side to have it done. :) [/QUOTE]
