Living with diseases affecting muscles, joints and-or skeleton
Life after a joint replacement: Share your experiences and advice!
Unregistered member
I had a hip replacement 16 months ago due to osteoarthritis. I can honestly say it was the best decision I have ever made. Yes I was not looking forward to everything post op, but I am now 100% mobile and after not being able to walk any distances I now enjoy walking again and I've managed to lose 2.5 stones. Totally pain free and I've had lots of comments about how much happier I look - my face was obviously showing my pain. If you have any questions please ask!

Hi everyone, how are you today?
When it comes to osteoporosis, we hear a lot of advice about calcium, supplements, and bone-friendly diets. But how much of it is actually helpful, and how much is just hype?
Have you tried changing your diet to protect your bones?
Do you take supplements or rely on food sources?
Have you come across recommendations that seemed unrealistic or outdated?

Let’s cut through the noise and share what’s actually helped. Your experiences can really help others sort out the useful from the confusing.
Take care,
