I had a periacetabular osteotomy in Feb 2000 in Boston. I still had pain so went back for more surgery in Feb 2001 where the dr put a plate in to hold it in place. Now 7 months later, I'm still experiencing a lot of pain. The dr now wants to remove the hardware. My question is: Has anyone had this much trouble? and should I really go through another operation? I am very discouraged. I thought one operation was going to solve my problems now I'm going on my third. If anyone has any information please let me know. Bonnie
