REBUILDING YOUR BODY

摘要

At 42, Sally Seeley was barely able to walk. Diagnosed with osteoarthritis in her late 20s, she tried a range of treatments from water aerobics to Vioxx. But her condition only got worse. Finally, an orthopedic surgeon recommended total hip replacement. She worried that she was too young for such surgery, but she just couldn't stand the discomfort any longer. "The pain was gone immediately," says Seeley, now 49. Three months ago, she had her right hip done; she's already back at work.
