    Hi Mig

    Just to say that apparently my old hip was full of cysts and they had contributed to the disintegration of the joint.. happily I had a successful hip replacement 15 months ago and the new hip is OK.

    Hi Mig,

    Hopefully they will cause no problems for you.

    I had some removed with the last rebuild and also had some taken out of the ligaments in my left foot when the fused the toes... they can hurt as well as do damage but they don't always so with luck you will be fine. Fingers crossed for you. Cris x
