Description of Event or Problem · 1

(B)(6) DID HIP REPLACEMENTS ON BOTH HIPS. SINCE THE BEGINNING, I HAVE HAD PAIN ESPECIALLY IN THE LEFT HIP. THE PAIN NOW GOES DOWN TO MY KNEE. I'M NOT GIVEN PAIN MEDICATION ANYMORE SO I BUY IBUPROFEN BUT IT DOES NOT HELP. THE PAIN IS SO BAD I CANNOT STAND FOR LONG AND NEED A WALKER TO GET AROUND.
