Eva’s Story

What was life like before joint replacement surgery? 
Before I had my joint replacement, I walked bent over to help relieve pain. I was in almost constant pain. 

What was the turning point for you?
My turning point was when I finally had enough; even injections didn’t help. 

How has joint replacement changed your life?
I have no pain in my left hip. I can walk up steps and hills without trouble. 

What advice would you give others considering joint replacement?
I wish I had not waited longer than necessary.
