Hi John I had my hip replaced 3 years ago ... biggest mistake I have ever made
My right leg is now 20mm longer than my left leg and as I also have a badly degenerated back the length difference is making life very painful ... as for the actual hip replacement it wasn't that bad ... first week was the worst for pain, just make sure you do the pre opp exercises
