January 23  -  6-month appointment with the surgeon (THR July 23)

He was worried about the lingering pain in the hip, groin and leg.
Sent me to the X-ray department.  Radiologist wanted a picture of
the groin and twisted my leg.  Can you say P_A_I_N ?  Doc wants
me back in 3 months....mentioned possibility of another surgery.

Next day I had an appointment with the urologist (his X-rays
showed no mets to bones).  Asked why I was aching and I told
him about the experience the day before in X-ray.

That evening the soreness began to fade.  Woke Friday morning
with  N_O  pain in the hip, groin, or leg.  Below the waist
I've been pain-free for 2 weeks.  Knock on wood! <g>

Still have the lingering stiffness and soreness in the neck,
which produces headaches - most very mild, a few extreme.
