I BROKE THE BALL OF MY RIGHT HIP WHEN I WAS 15. HAD 3 SCREWS ALSO. I HAVE HAD 3 THR'S SINCE AND I'M NOW 49 PLUS A TOTAL LEFT KNEE. I PERSONALLY SUGGEST A SECOND OPINION BASED UPON WHAT YOU HAVE SAID. BEING YOU SOUND QUITE ACTIVE, THE IDEA IS TO PROVIDE THE MOST COMFORT WITH THE LONGEVITY NEEDED. THE DR'S COMMENT PUZZLES ME THOUGH, HIPREPLACEMENTS ARE COMMON AND 46 OR SO IS NOT UNCOMMON. DO YOUR RESEARCH AND FIND A DR. WHO CAN EXPLAIN FULLY THE NEGATIVES AS WELL AS THE POSITIVES. GOOD LUCK !!!!!
