Hello

Coby

Lovely to join the group. I am awaiting a hip replacement, just been told the wait has gone from 12 months to 15 months. So another 9 months to wait. I got an email asking to join the community chat, the timing could not have been better.

Thank you

Sue

Hi @Coby

Welcome to the community, it's great that you joined us and posted 😊

Sorry to hear about your wait time for your hip replacement, this is such a problem at the moment all too common unfortunately!

Did you see the work we did on cost of living and reducing waiting times with our letter to government

https://www.versusarthritis.org/news/2023/february/the-government-must-do-more-for-people-with-arthritis-during-the-cost-of-living-crisis/

We also did the Impossible to Ignore campaign We are calling for more support for those waiting for joint replacement surgery (versusarthritis.org) and with this is some great info in our joint replacement support package in this article.

I'm sure you'll get the support and understanding here.

Best wishes
