Jan I can only tell you that your body is adaptive and only if you feed it
the proper nurtients will it adapt properly.

Due to OA, I have had both my left knee and hip replaced over the last few
years.

On Tuesday I had the most excruciating pain from my left groin, through the
hip and down the thigh to the knee. I first noticed it when I tried to get
out of bed in the morning. It was impossible to even stand on my left leg,
so the GP visited. Got rushed into hospital for two nights. Every time I
tried to stand on my left leg I nearly passed out. Lots of x-rays showed
everything to be OK, blood tests showed no infection, lots of pethadrine
injections, Tramadol and Co-Dydramol tablets. No scan was taken and they
said a trapped nerve was not the problem.

Now I'm home and not needing painkillers any more but my left leg feels
different. Don't ask me to explain - it feels a bit heavy and wooden, and
I'm now wondering if anyone out there could suggest any possibilities, or
whether something similar has happened to them.

My surgeon sent his Registrar to see me when I was in A&E, but he couldn't
come up with any answers either.

I'm next due to see my surgeon on May 10th. I'm 60 years old.

***  i'm sorry you are hurting, jan.  it's the pitts when they can't find
the reason for pain.  i have a dumb question, but maybe it is one you might
want to ask your surgeon.  i know you had that hip replaced, but is it
possible your OA might be acting up, causing the pain, in what remains of
your hip girdle?
