Ok,I already use a cane to waddle around the house and a wheelchair to go out. I just hope pain will not be an issue as I am already on strong meds. My dr here does not think they will wnat to do it as outpatient,but I am going to pleed with them to. Hospitals and I do not mix well. Thank you for your prayers and support. With all my illnesses and poor mobility I need to remedy what of it I can and so I am going forward with seeing the orthopaedic surgeon next Monday.
