Katya's Hip: Based on a True Story

[@user-fn8bq7ef7t]

The fact that a world famous drag star had to shop around because some doctors didn’t believe she could be in horrible pain even with a legitimate diagnosis and referral… is relatable and sad.

[@lostblueboy]

welp its what happens when health decisions are made not by doctors and regarding patient health but about money and insurance and doctors reputation etc. That country needs to fix itself before it dissolves.

[@wendybutler1681]

That practice only worked with geriatric patients. Why would they accept a 40 yo patient?

[@netowner666]

Its probably because of her history of substance abuse

[@lostblueboy]

@@netowner666what does thatt have to do with hip surgery. Its not like she is genuinely faking a hip problem just for pain killers or something. Anyways....

[@kittykahdy]

I think they just don't like doing hip replacement on younger people because the prothesis has an expiration date and it will need to be replaced later. At least that's what they told my mom at 62, so I imagine It's even harder to get it earlier on.

[@RicardodaSilvaRdS]

"Hip replacement or euthanasia" me every time I catch the flu

[@ragdollrose2687]

Ugh I'm just 29, had hip pain pretty much my whole life but it got worse recently. Tbh I feel her, it's me or the hip, this town is too small for both of us 😂

[@bumblebee9482]

katya: I got a hip injury and idk where it came from katya five minutes prior: I did the split, had horrible pain, kept going - injury, injury, injury

[@fayerawcliffe7794]

MY FIRST THOUGHT

[@kennadamitz2148]

She definitely just didn’t feel like telling the story 😂

[@robbieboydudeguy]

“I went to the- well, not the chiropractor, that’s not a real thing.” SHES SO REAAAALLLL!!! Chiropractors are so widely untrustworthy

[@basementdwellercosplay]

Yeah, ive only trusted one chiropractor and thats only cause he will tell it to be straight that unlike 99% of chiropractors that will say they can cure you, he admits that no one can heal my back issues but here are ways i can help lessen the pain. Most of my treatments for my back, that work amazing for my slipped disk, arent in his office and i do at home without any payment to him. The only one i have to go in to see him is a tens unit that is stronger than any than ones you can buy. I only trust that chiropractor to crack my back

[@CoRLex-jh5vx]

Fr. Mine was pretty good at the actual chiropracty side but charged exorbitant prices and would only sell a minimum of six sessions as a package. I went with twelve and then had to miss what should have been the eleventh to get an emergency tetanus shot, tried to get hold of her to tell her and she just didn't pick up. Left a voicemail and then tried to arrange to book the next session, and nothing. Crickets. Could not get hold of her whatsoever. Its been two years and I still haven't had the last session I actually paid for. Also a detail I feel is worth mentioning; she worked out of her house which was absolutely massive, and in the room she worked in every wall was absolutely covered (as in could not see the wallpaper) with either bookshelves or framed paintings of horses. Also she had a stack of about seven matching books all in a row and the same one was upside down every single time I went and it annoyed me to no end.

[@amyk.2500]

I’m pregnant and I go 3 times a week. It’s incredible! I was in so much pain before

I love Trixie getting progressively more dragged out while Katya’s just sitting there in shirt pants socks

[@cocoandgreg]

Hahah

[@juliacastro8505]

she probbaly gets bored lmao

[@marywilka8769]

9:59 okay but trixie immediately and without question going to help katya put the sock on is so sweet and i love how much they love each other and makes me miss my friends

[@wasabi.2839]

Trixie love language seems like acts of services, she seems very caring and physical touch, specially protecting tendencies from the latter one.

[@sarkzar]

I'm pretty sure they mention on an episode of UNHhhh that trixie would take care of katya if she needed it. It was probably something with old age or shitting themselves or something funny like that but she meant it.

[@pachimarie]

​@@sarkzarit was DEFINITELY about shitting

[@MilesToGoGo]

@estebanco6937 lol yea she said something like “you wouldn’t have to pay me but we could just never talk about it ever again” 😂 seems fair lol

[@juliacastro8505]

its bizarre we're acting like thats not what friends are supposed to do lol its sweet but yeah, thats what friends are for

[@Awesomeperson4872]

Katya: *goes into extreme detail to tell the story of how she injured her hip* Also Katya: "So I have a hip injury. I have no idea where it came from"

[@Hoodprincess096]

Not trixie being a supportive queen and also roasting katya about her hip every chance she gets :') and katya loves it haha.

[@Bree_999]

That's how you know they are true friends

[@zillailluhr]

That walk she did 😂

[@andreamarie6501]

Ooo as a chronic pain sufferer, to hear them acknowledge how hard it is and the adjacent issues that come with it, I feel so seen 🥺

[@montanasuede]

Me too. I never thought about the correlation between pain & depression which I had before the pain also.

[@OrNaurItsKat]

Same. I have an autoimmune disease and I tore my ACL and fractured my tibia a couple months ago and I got told by a surgeon because of my medication I'm on that I needed to do my own research and decide what method he would use to do my partial knee construction (because he didn't want the liability of making the final decision), like sir I'm sorry aren't you the one that went to medical school?! And I'm supposed to Google to figure out what you need to do?? It was like he had never seen a patient with an autoimmune disease before. I had to jump through so many hoops, I think I went to 5 different appointments before I finally saw a surgeon that scheduled me FINALLY

[@montanasuede]

@@OrNaurItsKat I was prescribed Lexapro by a resident psychiatrist. I began have odd side effects. I was asked, "do you want to increase the dose? I said sure - figuring it would help if she suggested it or gave ME the option. After increasing the dose, I began having increasing side effects and AGAIN I was asked, "do you want to increase the dose? To which I replied, "Yes". Long story short I began to be the most deeply depressed I had ever been, unmoving for 18 hours sometimes, suicidal and anorexic and I wound up in a psych ward. No liability for the psychiatrist because I made the choice.

[@SignatureFox713]

I just got diagnosed with spondylosis after being told by my own mother (who is a nurse herself who has DDD and Rheumatoid arthritis) that my back pain, lock ups and tingling pain down my leg HAS to be caused by me being overweight and not exercising

[@jameshopkins503]

Yup. And I hear that "Youre too young" crap all the damn time. I still have a body that got injured. Being young doesn't mean you CANT feel pain. It makes you feel so unheard and unimportant. I remember when a doctor finally agreed to put me on pain meds I cried not only for the relief that would come but simply because someone was finally believing me. Not every one is an addict looking for a fix they just screwed it up for the rest of us who the medicine is actually made for. I wish I didn't need it to live a normal life believe me. The side effects alone suck.

[@afreepotatochip8765]

i love that while katya was in pain trixie kept her jokes to a minimum and then when the surgery was done she started dragging her to hell

[@EmilyRedeker]

As a chronically ill person, I’m so glad that Katya got relief, and this whole video is so relatable.

[@ArthurAnymoredonuts1]

Trixie putting a sock on Katya is the sweetest thing I've ever seen.

[@MikelosM]

>"but you're so young! why would you need a hip replacement?" > *watches RPDR S7E2 lipsync; AS2E1 talent show*

[@short_stack21]

When Katya said the second doctor wouldn’t even see her because of her age, are you kidding?! I hate the medical industry, they will make lifesaving medicine absolutely unaffordable and deny people in pain access to treatment. My grandma has so many back problems to where she needs a back brace, constant appointments at the chiropractor to make sure things are in place, MONTHLY cortisol shots in her spine that also include burning off her nerves and they still say she’s not bad enough to even be CONSIDERED for surgery. I’m so glad that Katya was able to get the help that she needed because others definitely aren’t as lucky.

[@zenith5891]

dude i have multiple chronic illnesses that cause me to be immune deficient and i got the flu in may which turned into severe pneumonia and then sepsis. so i was going to get my flu shot this season but i have to get a very specific type of flu shot due to one of my diseases or else i risk a very bad and dangerous health flare, but even with my doctor’s prescription, no pharmacist or doctor will give me it until i’m 18. IN 5 FUCKING MONTHS. literally the only thing i can do until is up my anxiety meds, cross my fingers that being around people won’t trigger my medical ptsd, and hope that i won’t get the flu and almost die again. love american healthcare.

[@helloimellieful]

As a 27 year old with genetic early onset arthritis and a herniated disk in my spine.... i really appreciate Trixie and Katya being real about the depression aspect of chronic pain 😢

[@Cynita]

I'm so glad Katya's surgery went well and she still hasn't smoked! I'm so happy for her. And Trixie putting her sock on was so fucking sweet😭😭

[@theoriginal1971]

there are videos on twitter of her in one live pod show and during her gig at trixie's bar, and she's still killing it! she was doing handstands while dancing against the wall lol. during her solid pink disco gig with trixie, it was obvious she still had limited movements but happy to see that she's getting stronger day by day.

[@meadowfrance]

The way in the first clip he explains the process of the injury and in the second he goes idk where it came from whatever 😂

[@cocoandgreg]

Hahahahha

[@caslikes]

the doctors said she was "too young" to be in enough pain to warrant a hip replacement??? ridiculous

As someone who had 2 cortisone shots (1 in each hip) at the age of 23, this does not make me excited about my future health prognosis

[@defendthecity]

I also have FAI and had to have surgery (luckily just a repair and not a full replacement) and the pain is REAL. stays with you for hours once it sets in - some days the ache was so bad that I couldn't sleep. I can't imagine doing half the things she does with this injury. she truly is a queen

[@the.c0uch]

Dam this whole time i thought trixie was just making a joke about how old katya is 😭 but glad shes taking care of herself

[@blackthornelder]

Love her. As someone who tore my hip and heavy hiked on it for a week, I felt that. So far I'm lucky I don't need a replacement, but boy does that shit hurt so bad 😭 Flare-ups are the fuckin WORST, especially since I ride horses. Fuck hip joints, them bitches are so finicky.

[@MooMooFutch]

As someone who has the same condition as Katya, when I saw this pod and she stood up to show Trixie where the pain was, I actually said out loud at home “That sounds like FAI (Femoral Acetabulum Impingement)” turns out that is exactly what she has. She’s lucky she had it one side. Mine is both and has other complications along with it.

@@pugsley9618 for me it's just straight up morphine and the fact that i at 28 have the same drug tolerance as katya 😅

[@Ford_prefect_42]

I was on tramadol after my first surgery and I agree! Tylenol helped more. I had an hour long conversation with a friend from college at 2am while I was on that stuff and suddenly she disappeared... I was hallucinating the whole time 🤦‍♀️

[@thexthird]

They try to make you wait because hip replacements only last so long. Katya will need at least one more in her lifetime. Then, it'll be even more difficult if the second hip goes out as well, depending on her age at the time.

[@cocoandgreg]

True but also seemed necessary!

[@Genderanarchy]

The medical system is doing the same to me with my kidneys and liver 😅 I have a disease where both will at some point have to be transplanted and I’m currently 26, not even on dialysis yet, but my kidneys are kicking my ass the last ~3 years. It’s sad I can see/feel the transplant situation coming and then have the knowledge that I may have to get *another* transplant in my lifetime after that is terrifying.

I have recently been diagnosed with AVN, because of taking steroids for an autoimmune thing I have. Finding out Katya also had a hip problem has been comforting, as I’ve gotta figure out my own hip replacement right now. Learning I can be fine afterwards and that it can be an easy process has been healing. Thanks for posting this.

I love how these two biological women are close and as thick as damn Robinhood and his merry band of thieves, and yet they never run out of new stories to tell each other.

Oh, my goodness! I can relate only too well to your chronic pain!! 😢 I have severe arthritis of the spine and have had all sorts of procedures from cortisone shots to two fusion operations.

I can relate to the cortisone shot, I would get one with contrast for my hip MRI. I had hip surgery in the Army when I was 26, I had a tear in my labrum, and illopsoas tendon was getting impinged between my ball and socket, so it needed to be cut. The socket of my hip also had some extra bone growth on the outside, causing the impingement, and it had to be shaved down. It took about 2 years to feel 100% back to normal after surgery. I still have pain occasionally, but it just depends.

[@UndeadEyes]

Welp...this is literally what I just had 2 MRIs for this weekend. I herniated a disc two years ago and my hips been bad since April... Now we're waiting on the results to find out if it's bursitis of the greater trochanter or something more serious, whether it's injections or surgery. Also, yes, breaking down crying is what happens with chronic pain. I broke down crying talking to the doctor this time, saying I was tired of being dismissed by other doctors and how I'm tired of being in pain (I just healed from a partial patellar tendon tear that the male doctors completely dismissed as a fat pad impingement despite clear internal bruising down the front of my leg from a tear, my fibular join locking up due to the injury, and the fact I almost collapsed going down the stairs when it was tearing (I only didn't because I didn't want the dog in my arms to get hurt). Here's hoping I'll be in less pain soon lol.

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

I relate to having to find a female doctor who won’t dismiss your pain to actually get an MRI in the first place. Also, as an autistic person, I can’t rate pain on a scale . I’m not allowed by neurotypicals to feel pain or I make them uncomfortable. So me rating my pain on a scale makes no sense. You should look at the MRI to decide if surgery is needed. Not a freaking pain scale .
