conv: I've just been to see my orthopedic surgeon. He has suggested an operation to fix my hip. I'm worried about it as surgery is quite stressful. On my last visit to my orthopedic surgeon he suggested surgery to fix my hip. Yikes that sounds scary but overall good for the end results. How do you feel about it?  Nervous. Surgery is a big step and I'm afraid something will go wrong. I understand i would be too but now a days technology is really good just make sure its a reliable hospital!  You're absolutely correct and the hospital's one of the best in the country. Still_comma_ I fret about it. I should just get on with it!
