Finally! Arthroplasty Right Total Hip.
Just yesterday I had my 4th surgery in a time span of 3 years. My team of doctors are putting me back together one piece at a time.
At the age of 55 I have now had a total hip replacement of my right hip. I hope that this gives me back some of the mobility that I have been struggling to recover over the past 6 years.
I started my preparation and pursuit of this surgery at the end of October 2025; working on losing weight (44 lbs so far) and getting my A1C under control (Currently 5.3)
Battles with #Aetna over pre-authorization, Firing the first surgeon assigned to me after feeling like I was being asked to jump through unnecessary hoops as if I was a circus dog. In the end, that part turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I found a surgeon that specializes in a method called SuperPATH, which is much less invasive in terms of muscle and soft tissue damage from the procedure. Today is the first day of recovery after my surgery yesterday morning.
I have been very fortunate and blessed to have Alisha by my side through the whole process. She has been taking great care of me since coming home from the hospital.
