A few weeks ago I mentioned that I'm supposed to get a cortizone injection in my left hip at VA. It was supposed to happen on the 15th of this month. BUT my old lungs (COPD) decided to flare up and I ended up back in the hospital last Saturday (week ago) and on Monday I decided to have some chest pain that was followed by a heart cath & them putting me on blood thinners again so that wiped out the injection till I'm off the thinner. In talking with the Dr. (she's a cutie too)she tells me, the same that a lot of you guys did, that the injection is only a mask for the pain at best and she feels that in 6 months get me off the thinners and do the replacement. Dog Gone it this getting old sure isn't what I envisioned when I was younger. I thought it would be golf, vacations, and a lot of relaxation. Shoot, I never was any good at golf , didn't really enjoy the vacation that we took and never learned how to relax anyway LOL. Keith
