Good luck Aaron. Regarding the anterior replacement, I have had one and overall it's da bomb. You will recover quickly, and there can't be any more actual joint pain because your painful joint is gone. The surrounding muscles can be sore. I guess your recovery may be longer than in the typical one because of your history, but in my case and other guys I have known who got this surgery, by a month or so you can hardly remember which hip was operated.

Maybe it's different for me for some reason. My surgeon said the first month will be very difficult then i'll get better quickly. By month three I should be back to all normal activities although it could take 6 months or more before i'm fully recovered.
