Light2023: It has been a terrible and horrific time of my life. The pains associated with this ailment is out of this world, I hardly do things on my own. My mobility is limited, I hardly go out now except on a serious matter that requires my attention. So, I depends on pain killer to ease it. Prednisolone and felvin is what I have been using. |

Oh dear, i know how you feel, I’ve totally lost range of motion of my hips to the point that I can’t even open my legs to sit on a bike. May we remain mentally strong through this because it can be mentally depressing. Thanks for sharing what you’ve been using for the pain, I’ll give it a try because the drugs I’ve been using aint working for me. okeke6969: |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by okeke6969: 12:19pm On Feb 27 |
Light2023: So sorry about yours too. As for me on the bike issue, I climb bike like a lady on mini skirt. On the drugs, this is the combination I use- In the morning- 2 prednisolone+ 2 felvin. In the night - Repeat same. Let me me know the outcome. Please, stay strong. If I may ask, for how many months is it? |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by okeke6969: 12:49pm On Feb 27 |
Light2023: Prednisolone 1 satchet (10pcs)= N150 Felvin 1 satchet (10pcs)= N200. Depending on your location. I reside in Sagamu, Ogun State.

Thanks for the info. This problem started 2 yrs ago when i moved to Akeja (an area inside ogun state separated from Lagos by just a small bridge) It became worst when i moved a bit deeper into Ogun state (Ota). I’ve left Ota and now stay in Lagos. I feel like There is so many bad forces operating in that Ogun state. okeke6969: |

Using a steroid with an NSAID is the fastest way to dying through a catastrophic bleeding stomach ulcer. Steroids will eat away at your bones hastening the arthritis. Maybe look at your senator,house of reps member, governor. See if that helps. Get back to here if they say no so that we can shame them even more Light2023: |

The drugs are working, the pain has magnificently reduced to the point that I don’t limp like i used to. Only thing i noticed is that i now dream a lot and hallucinate right after waking up from a dream. Today when i woke up from a dream i saw a big ass spider the size of an adult man’s hand grabbing a big ass cockroach . It was all hallucinations okeke6969: |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by okeke6969: 12:39am On Mar 02 |
Light2023: You are too funny oo😂😂😂 well, i really don't experience the hallucinations. Thank God you got a relief. Whatever it is, it will stop for sure. Wishing you more relief and good health. Again, eat more cucumber, it also helps. |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by Light2023: 3:54pm On Mar 06 |
Yes sir the hallucinations have stopped and I’ve added cucumber to my diet, thanks. okeke6969: |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by okeke6969: 4:33pm On Mar 06 |
Light2023:Thank God it stopped. Continue with the cucumber at least thrice in a week. Concerning the drugs, sometimes, jump a full day and continue. For example: take it mon, wed and sat. Again, remember, this routine is just for pain relief. If you have the money, still.visit the hospital or tradomedic for proper solution. |
Re: What Is The Cost Of Total Hip Replacement And Best Place To Do It In Nigeria by Light2023: 3:46am On May 02 |
I’ve stopped taking prednisolone because a doctor just told me it can cause same problem at other joints because it is a steroid. okeke6969: |

Light2023: Treat avn with hbot HBO therapy is particularly useful for people with avascular necrosis in combination with stem cell treatments. “Stem cells are very beneficial to avascular necrosis because they can help repair the damaged blood supply and the dead bone,” says Daniel Wiznia, MD, a Yale Medicine orthopaedic surgeon.15 Nov 2023 https://www.google.com/search?q=avascular+necrosis+and+hbot For 14 years we have been (in the wilderness) preaching about HBOT. Many have cursed us and insulted us and crucified us (as they did to John the Baptist in the holy bible). Some who cannot read one line a day continue to deceive suffering people and misguide them against hbot; while others clap and follow ignorantly. Anyone carrying a diagnosis of avascular necrosis of a (knee, hip, shoulder) joint or osteonecrosis please know that pain killers or steroids are not final solution. Although they can blunt your pain the drugs can not solve the original cause of the problems. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy -hbot is a suitable solution to avn, osteonecrosis, and some degenerative diseases. HBOT needs to be used to halt bone damage. HBOT can increase blood and oxygen supply to the joints to improve healing. Without enough oxygen the bones continue to die off (necrosis) The most undesirable treatment will be joint replacement. HBOT works from different angles please find out yourselves. If this article offends anyone let him 'jump-am- pass' like before. We are available to help. HBOT PROVIDERS in PH. |
