oh the waiting game..

Hi everyone!


Well i guess ill just start off with a few things about me. Im a college student currently in my second year. I use to be a competive gymnast before i had to quit and I love animals.


Anywho, i have been researching hip dysplasia for a couple weeks now and trying to pull together some information. I have had hip/knee pain for about 10 years now and no one has helped me. About a month ago my pain go worse in my right hip so I went back o the doctor for some help. They got an MRI and they diagnosed me with hip dysplasia. And because of the dysplasia i have a torn labrum. It was all alot to take in and now i am waiting for him to talk with another doctor. Hes not sure if this doctor in st. louis will want to perform the PAO or if i just get the labrum repaired. Its been about four weeks now and still heard nothing. Im getting sooo nervous and im really not sure what to expect. Either way I will need to have surgery and thats my worst fear! Please I will take any advice...Im very scared!
