Looks like I'll really will be in the states longer than my original plan. Got through the heart pre check up with my cardiologist and received his clearance for surgery to get my hip replaced. Though I'm also going to have a nuclear test on the effectiveness of my heart arteries but guess they think all is ok because they've scheduled for the surgery on the 31 of this month (July). Guess a total hip replacement is the only way to deal with AVN (avascular necrosis) the problem that causing all this trouble and pain
Decided on dr Paul Sasaura of Summit Otho to do the job.. He seems like a pretty sharp cookie, using the new, up today, minimal invasive technique. A small incision about 2 inches square and then once inside he works to minimize the trauma induced to the tissue surrounding the bone with the help of a computer map.
Still working on some new Vietnam stuff along with Cambodia and it's national election next week.
Anyway,folks if you're anything like me (over 65) don't push too hard on those work outs.
Doug
