I ve been living with juvenile arthritis since the age of 12. I had a left hip replacement at the age of 19 duo to the steroids I had to take for so long. After my surgery I met a doctor that changed my life through a very complex process of cleansing my body I got rid of all the acids that caused my arthritis. I since taken Bikram yoga and i am vegetarian, I have 2 kids and I live a mostly pain free life. I am 33 years old I do skydiving, hiking, rock climbing.Everything is possible!

I am inspired! I've had my left hip replaced and going for the right soon. (Avuncular Necrosis at age 45) I've been living with Lupus for almost 20 years and i want to get back in shape (steroids weight) I love the philosophy of yoga and want to begin using it. Thanks for posting and giving me hope!

Listen to your body...if you were active before you will be active again..this time perhaps with less range of movement but happily pain free!

@woadtoad I'd love to know how you are doing now??? I am 31 and just had a total right hip done 6 weeks ago (congenital hip dysplasia) . I was a fairly active person and practiced yoga and can't wait to get going again. I understand what you mean about being drilled otherwise by the nurses and docs.

It's quite moving to watch you act with such care, respect, and acceptance of where your body is in the healing process. You're an inspiration when I feel discouraged. Om Shanti.

Thank you for your lovely comment. Be patient, there's no hurry in the healing process. Follow your body's needs and all will be well. My best to you!

what happened to her hip precautions??? I had my surgery at age 29 and had precautions for 8 weeks. she shouldn't even be bending over at all. notsmart in my opinion.

I was given no restrictions....I followed what my body allowed. I was an extremely active and able bodied person prior to surgery and that probably had something to do with my recovery.
