Thank you sooo much!!! Good work, all of you, but mostly you! hope I can too😊 when the time soon comes!

I just had my hip replaced it two weeks ago. I’ve been watching your video faithfully for months because I always see something new on there and yours was the most complete detailed description of what you went through and I rely on it for information.

4th time lol.

Hi, January 17th ‘25 & scheduled for left hip replacement on Monday. Thank you for putting up your story. It gave me a lot of insight about recovery. They tell me the hip replacement is an easier recovery than a total knee, I’ve had 4 of them. The 1st was both at the same time. Plus 2 yrs ago this month 1 wear plate replacement. Like you stated the physical therapy part is what’s so hard but you gotta push thru the pain & get mobility back. It’s never like what we were born with but close. My wife & were talking & if we were living in our grandparents age, for some of us I’m 79, we’d be in a wheel chair the rest of our lives. I feel blessed this technology exists as I’m sure you are. It has & will again “Give me my life back”. Again thank you for documenting your journey. Ron W.

Sherri, what an inspiring video. I’ve made the decision to get this but have been concerned about recovery to play tennis etc. life long tennis player. Such a great video. Thank you!

OK I watched for the third time -I think I need help lol.

Very helpful as I'm scheduled for my left hip this Tuesday. I hope my recovery is as steady as yours.

Awesome video! I'm having my left hip replaced in a few weeks. Thanks for the video, now I know what to expect and what to do.

Thanks. ❤

Very helpful, just the information I needed! 👍👍 I am scheduled for the end of January. Thank you so much!!! 💜

I'm very happy for you , you have more courage than I do , just can't face it ...

Hi Sherri greetings from the UK, I've just discovered your video I'm glad I did. I'm so inspired by your recovery it gives me hope for my surgery which is due at the end of this month. I hope I recover like you did but as you know everyone is different. I can't wait to have it over and done with as it's affecting my life but looking forward to getting back on my feet.

I really think you got misguided by your doctor, that he didn't wanted you to be operated sooner. I hope all is well now! I'm going in foR THR next week.

I'm 10 weeks post surgery and feeling 100%

My left hip replacement surgery is scheduled for Monday. I have been dealing with osteoarthritis issues for about 10 years. After seeing this and other videos I am very hopeful. I want to get back to "normal" as much as it can be for a 70 year old man ... which is bowling in my leagues twice a week and every other Saturday (I'm a 200+ average), working on our two race cars during the Spring and Summer months, and long weekends of camping with my wife and grandkids from time to time. Fingers crossed ... then three or four months down the road it will maybe be time to replace my right knee. As my doctor says: after 30 years of baseball and 50 years of bowling it is time for some new parts. 😁

Thank you - getting my hip done and also tell your husband he is a lucky man lol.

Thank you for sharing, I have severe osteoarthritis in my hip. Putting it off because I am alone. Not because of the surgery. Glad to see your success 🥰🎈💪 Thank you so much

I had hip replacement surgery almost 1 week ago. Rheumatoid Arthritis had destroyed my hip. This surgery was not as bad as the double knee replacement surgery I had 16 years ago. Still tough though! Thanks for sharing.

This is so helpful! I am 1 month out of anterior THA. It really helped me to see your journey.

OMG 😮😊😂❤ Thank you SO MUCH. I think I can do this if doctors decide I am a good candidate. Now or later, will soon find out. ❤😂🫶👍

I fell last May, had a thr and I'm stlll in pain!!!

Hi , i have now done a total hip replacement one week ago. I am realy surpriced how fast things are going. I am now walking without any helping tool and have not have any pain sice before the surgery.

I didnt see you climbing stairs

Good Job Sherri, build that muscle around the joint and you'll be good to go!

I assume you had bilateral hip dysplasia ? I had bilateral hip dysplasia (65 yo male) and just had my right one replaced 4 weeks ago, left one done 17 months ago. never really had bone on bone so never really understood my hip pain as it took the 4th doctor to point out the issue was hip dysplasia.

Thank you for showing the video make me think about my last surgery I had to go through the exercises too. Take 6 months or a year to really feel normal again. Now I have to have another surgery start all over again. Never give up. Have to be more careful now that I am older now.

Thanks for the impressive video. I am astounded that this surgery is performed on an outpatient basis in the USA. In Europe we stay in the hospital for a week for a hip replacement surgery.

I've been bone on bone for about 18 months now with a left hip impingement. I'm 63 days away from anterior approach replacement. I can't imagine 10 years of this. Dr said my deterioration is not that common at 46 years old.

Well done Sherri and thanks for being brave enough to share your journey. Xx

Right now I’m three weeks out. Walking with a cane. Go to therapy two times a week. Everything is great that old Bad bad pain is gone thank God .do a lot of bad exercises. My therapist said do not raise your knee too far up to your chest. He has had somebody dislocate their hip by doing that going too far and going past the 90° bending is not good. I had posterior hip replacement three weeks and walking with a cane can’t believe itthanks. Thanks for checking on me.

After one year, are you able to comfortably tie your shoe laces? I'm 4 months post op and am still having slight problems putting on socks and tying my shoe laces. But I see improvement and hope all of that will eventually be possible. Thank you for the video.

HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED, THE HIP REPLACED IS MUCH L O N G E R ??? IM SO FRUSTRATED !😢

Getting operated tomorrow 😅😢😂❤... after 5 years in a ♿️. 1❤

Interesting and well told. I have been bedridden for almost two years now after my surgery; infection.

Absolutely amazing

Loosing weight after hip replacement

I'm so happy to see this video because I just got my right hip done two weeks, and I am struggling with the exercises .....you looks good 👍 ❤ Cat keeping track 👣 of mommy full recovery 😻.

Thanks for the video…..I am 60 YO. I crashed hard in a fall, and broke my hip. I am 7 days in, post surgery….I am taking it as it comes. The big difference with an accident related hip replacement is that you get no prep before surgery AND the trauma from the fall/break itself is a complicating factor.I am working very hard to be patient.

22:04 ❤ I have multiple scars, and I say so too! Scars are cool 😎

Why did you have two hip replacements?

Definitely relate..sock puller and pickup stick a must...railing for toilet very important...bought unit off amazon

Add another reason why is I have no help I am a caregiver taking care of my husband and a retired CNA my daughter live in Connecticut I'm in Virginia

T thanks for sharing I am so scared I have osteoarthritis and I'm 66 years old the pain is something else is very uncomfortable sitting down and getting in and out of my car I'm still going to keep on looking before I decided to do this

Orthopedic surgeons love these replacements. Rarely are the recepeants "normal" again.

How many people here got a hip replacement after taking the covid shot

Well done young lady. I’m gonna be 73 and probably next year February 2025. I’m gonna probably have to have my left hip replaced. I have both knees replaced already so I know all about the helper strap and things that need to be done my biggest concern would be. I am more of a side sleeper and I suppose if I knock myself out with pain pills I could probably sleep on my back through the night plus, I also use the CPAP machine so I have very severe arthritis and very achy joint in my left hip. I take Voltaren to help with the anti-inflammatory properties and that does seem to help after about five hours. The left hip feel somewhat normal but looking forward to getting my left hip replaced and getting mobility back andlooking to be pain-free. Thank you for this video.

I'm in my 20s and have to go in for a THR tomorrow morning. It's been very helpful finding videos like this that have helped me to feel a little less afraid of going through this procedure. Thank you for sharing and massive congrats on your recovery 🎉❤

You might have a janky hip, but you have beautiful feet.

Thanks for sharing your experience. In a few days I am going for my left hip replacement surgery and your video showed me a lot about what to expect and possibly to overcome. 77 years old and so much to do! Thanks indeed!
