My hip problem.

Introduction

This section of my website is to chronicle my hip problems, tell you what happened, how I got it fixed – and I did!! I got a type of hip replacement called a hip resurfacing. This story has a deliriously happy ending. I will try to make clear what happened, how it went, what some of the rehab issues are and, well a whole bunch of other stuff.
