is Hoping the total hip replacement surgery on Nov. 14th will give me enough relief to go back to walking. I have put on soooo much weight which is not good for my joints.

About Me

I have been living with some sort of pain since my mid twenties so I never really thought much about it until one day I noticed I was limping. Then I realized my lower back was really hurting. Then my hands, knees, neck, and so on. Then in 1999 the right hip started hurting, MRI showed AVN in both hips. Arthritis runs in my family on my fathers side. My aunt (his sister) had RA and Good Pastures Syndrome, a very rare form of arthritis. My father had OA mostly in his lower back and hands. One of my sons has joint problems, but he hasn't been diagnosed yet. The other also has joint problems and Lupus.
