I don't know what to name this thread...*Yet.*

Hey everyone, I need to get this out, its not about myself or anything...its not about anyone here either. I don't know what to call this thread at all.....I just don't know. A few days ago my Mom went to go to the doctor for her hip (she's been having pain while walking/and it'll just start hurting outta nowhere!) Mind you, her pain is usually up to about a 8 or so on the days that its causing the most pain! It gets bad and worse. So she went to the doctor on Monday afternoon to get a checkup on it, and they said that she has arthritis and bone spurs in her hip. My mother will be going back to the doctors tomorrow morning at 8:00AM to get a checkup on those, to see IF she'll really need to get a hip replacement anytime soon or not, (I forget the word of what their actually doing! When I figure the word out I'll update this). Anyway, she's really nervous and I've been through "something" like what she's going through tomorrow morning, and its just gonna be totally different for her because the doctors are going to inject something INTO her hip socket! And, I really have compation for her, I've delt with so much in my life that its just now that she's going to be having this happen to her...I love my mom, she helps me in so many ways. This pretty much upsets me, and I just can't explain anymore right now about this. I just wanted to ask if you could all keep her in your thoughts and prayers for me and my family.

Sure thing!!

I bet that is pretty painful though. Ouch! Does she have osteoparosis?

My mom had that type of injection to her knee & later to her hip. Trust me after the injection she will feel much better. The replacement surgery may not even be needed for a while. After the surgery, just baby that hip for a while tell her not to sit in too low of a chair for a while & get a raised potty. You'll really be sitting on a throne!
She will be fine & you'll survive too!

Thanks, I'll let her know not to sit in a low chair and stuff. Thanks for the help. I'm sure she'll feel better after its done too.
