    Catlady

    Wish you lots of luck.

    Make sure they answer all your questions, if you don't understans something don't be afraid to ask to tell you again what they meant,

    Will be in your pocket to give you some support. Will just take a sandwich incase I get hungry.

    Again Good luck.

    Love Trish xxxxxx

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.

    You sound organised catlady - do you have someone to go with you too, for moral support? DD
    Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben

    good luck catlady (love the name)
    If you have a list hopefully everything that's worrying you will be explained. I have a great nurse and a great Consultant and they work well together if I need Consultant she will go and get her no problem. Hoping that everthing goes well, will be thinking of you. Fay

    You're probably waiting to go in now - so hope it goes really well.

    I actually prefer to see the rheumy nurses, I think they're much friendlier and feel as though they generally care more !

    Let us know how it goes as soon as you can xxxxx
