I am 48 and have had bilateral THR, left in 9/99 and right in 11/2000. I have ceramic cups which are cemented in and titanium implants. I have followed the exercise plan and added more of my own. Sheer determination to beat this and get back to a 'Normal' life got me through all the surgical pain. My surgeon, Andrew Tang, based in Melbourne has to be praised for his part, without his skills, I would have ended up in a wheelchair
