Degenerative Hip Disease At 28 Posted: 08-30-07 12:57pm
i was recently diagnosed with Degenerative
hip disease after 3 years of hip pain
which in the last year is now so bad i
have not been able to weight bear on my
right leg for 3 weeks now
im currently taking diclofenic sodium50mg
x3 aday and tramadol at 200mg x 4day
i also have unstable epilepsy and SVT
my question is .. how long will this
disease take to keep bad enough for the
hip relacments they say i need??
im scared that i will be suffering alot
before the operation goes ahead and i cant
find any information on the degenerative
rate, i know it can vary person to person
but by how much?
im a mum to 3 children under 9 and with my
other conditions im finding it very hard
to cope with the new diagnosis, does
anyone have any advice for me??
