In retrospect I could have had it done 6 mos to a year sooner, but I wanted to make sure I investigated other avenues first and satisfied myself that the surgery was necessary.
But I have been quite amazed with the procedure. I had the operation in the morning, was walking with a walker that afternoon, went home the next day. Now I can do basically whatever I want (though as mentioned distance running may be problematic). I'm an avid cyclist, got to where I couldn't ride worth a damn before the surgery. Now I'm riding better than in years, no limitation from the hip at all. The commercials say "give me my life back," sounds corny, but it's not far off.
