Update - Gimpy

Posted: Mar 22nd, 2019 - 7:55 am In Reply to: :( - Gimpy

Yesterday I had my visit with my ortho doc to go over the results of my MRI. I didnt get to actually see the report, but he pulled the mri up on the computer and showed me what was going on. Apparently there is a lot going on in there...spurs, cysts, degeneration, thinning cartilage. He said some doctors will suggest an arthroscopy to go in and clean it all out, but at most it is a bandaid. He said he feels I need a hip replacement. Totally not expecting that news. Thanks to everyone who contributed to trying to help me. Not a happy camper here :(
