    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    I HAD A THR IN 2006. MY DR USED A PINNACLE CUP MADE BY J&J DEPUY. I HAVE AVN WHICH IS A VERY PAINFUL AND CRIPPLING. POST OP I EXPECTED PAIN, ESPECIALLY DURING PHYSICAL THERAPY. AFTER BEING RELEASED FROM THERAPY, THE PAIN NEVER LEFT. I ALSO NOTICED POPPING, LOOSENESS AND GRINDING. CAN'T DO NORMAL THINGS ANYMORE. WALKING A BLOCK TO THE CORNER STORE IS A PAINFUL EXPERIENCE. WHEN I ATTEMPT TO CUT THE GRASS, IT BECOMES PAINFUL AND IN THE EVENING, I PAY IN PAIN FOR THE EFFORT. I THOUGHT IT WAS NORMAL TO HAVE SOME PAIN BUT THIS IS FAR BEYOND NORMAL PAIN. I HOPE MY DR AGREES TO A REVISION. I AM SERIOUSLY WORRIED THAT WITHOUT A RECALL OF THIS DEPUY PINNACLE CUP (B)(6) WILL NOT COVER IT. I DO NOT WANT TO BE WHEELCHAIR BOUND AND TOO OLD TO WITHSTAND THE SURGERY. I HOPE YOU WILL HELP US ALL.
