    I hope your new hip will provide you with relief! Do you have any hobbies and interests?

    At the moment no as I can't walk more than 20 yds.I don't get out unless my Daughter takes me in my wheelchair. I would love some interest. I use to volenter at a food bank till I got this.

    Hi @Annabel - Welcome to the community 'tho I'm sorry to read about the difficulties you have. Are you going to have a hip replacement? My friend had one nearly 3 years ago, & for him it has really helped. I had fractured my hip a few months before his hip replacement, & we compared notes!
    I do hope your surgery benefits you, & you are most welcome to be here now & in the future.
