Just back from the Doc.

He thinks I need a new hip, I'm not convinced yet. being referred to specialist, not keen on surgery being devout coward.

Anyone had it done?

I've just got a appointment for the 14th of next month to have 3 systs removed of my left kidney one is 70mm in diameter the second one is 50mm and wasn't told how big the third one is so I've got something to look forward to lololol.

Ps they drained them last year but have since filled up again lol

I've have one knee done about 7 years ago just hope I don't need the other one done.

Liz had hers done in 2010/11, ready for new pair now though.

It's a good job you are not a Horse Jeff or they would shoot you instead.

Genuine question...
Are GP surgeries owned/funded in a similar way to (I believe ) up to 60% of vets, by hedge funds?
I assume the same could apply to dentists?

 

[Pudsey Bear]

No idea Tim, they certainly seem to be more and more interested in profits.

I know ours is Tim .

Many GPs only work 3 days a week (admitted on TV by a GP).

It's the only way they can cope with the stress.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

What stress, they hardly do owt.

I have had both knees and my right shoulder replaced. Knees have been no problem, first in 2011, but shoulder (2018) has had 2 further ops and 3 "procedures"! In Feb booked in for Nerve Blocker injection which apparently might remove the pain.
I too think the hip is your problem.

i have had hip replacement pudsey........your description of symptoms did not match mine..
however, i do have spinal stenosis (among many other things )which symptoms are very similar to yours
ask (press) for xray and scan which hopefully will determine problem......it may not be either....could be something else...good luck

I asked for an MRI actually Trixie
