Hip operation and Parkinsons
Hi this is the first time I've written anything on this forum. I'm due to see a consultant as my hip on my left side which is also my Parkinsons side is bone on bone and very painful. I was wondering if anyone has had a hip replacement with PD? Did you get your medication on time and was there any set backs due to "off" periods also I suffer badly with Dystonia (my left leg gets pulled up until im standing in a stork position which puts pressure on both hips especially the left one) add to this that my left arm is twisted up my back and my head is also pulled back which is very uncomfortable but the pain in my hips/legs etc is unbearable...I am hoping that someone can advise me on how they got on after operation and how medication was distributed. Thank you for taking the time to read this
Kind Regards
Janny
Hi
sorry to see that others have not responded. Have you had your consultation yet? Wishing you well. -Jessica (Team Member) Hi Jessica thank you for enquiring, yes I have seen a consultant who has marked ‘urgent’ on my form but because of lockdown they have a back log to get through. I’ve been told that it will get done asap but it’s just a waiting game now. I have been told that I will be allowed to self administer my Parkinson’s meds while in hospital as “i know my own body and Parkinson’s best” so I’m a bit more settled. Thank you once again.
