@Musicman im waiting for a hip replacement but they have said i have a high chance of dying if i have the op, so not sure what to do....
Musicman · 61-69, M
@Platinum Why is there a high chance of you dying? I need a total left shoulder replacement surgery. The doctor says the replacements only last 10 to 15 years. He doesn't want to do the operation twice so he would like me to wait until I am 70.

@Platinum If you don't have the operation will your life be shortened?
