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!

Hello everyone,
As you already know, Carenity contributes to medical research by way of carrying out online surveys.
We are going to conduct a new survey to better understand patients’ and caregivers’ experience with Botulinum Toxin A injections.
For this project, we are looking for a patient who could help us prepare the questionnaire by proofreading it and submitting their comments (1 hour interview by phone).
The patient should be undertaking Botulinum Toxin A treatment and suffering from spasticity due to a Stroke/Traumatic Brain Injury.
This patient will be paid around £100 for the service provided.
If you’d like to help with this project, please let us know. The first one to respond will be selected :)
Thank you very much in advance!
Kind regards,
Josephine
