Hi everyone

Chyna

I'm new to the community. I'm 50 and newly diagnosed with osteoarthritis of the right hip.. I'm just happy to know that I'm not alone and have an outlet with others that know exactly what I'm going through.

Hi @Chyna welcome to the Versus Arthritis online community.

I see you and Osteoarthritis in your right hip. You will find plenty here who have the same condition. Here is a recent thread on the subject:

This is a long thread by someone who recently had e total hip replacement. It has lots of contributions from other members in similar positions. Reading this you will know you are definitely no longer alone😊

Hi @Chyna I had my right hip replaced just over 7 weeks ago due to osteoarthritis. There is definitely light at the end of the tunnel - I am delighted to be almost back to normal.

Hi, @ coddfish, I'm so happy for you, and your speedy recovery. If you dont mind, how long had you been waiting for your replacement. I can't wait before I'm in your position.
