Q: Severe Pain 9 Years After Hip Replacement

My wife had hip replacement due to arthritis 9 years ago. All was well for a number of years. In the last 3 years she developed severe knee pain that has now moved all the way up her leg. She can hardly walk. Her hip doctor took x-rays and bone scans and says all is ok with her hip. A knee doctor said the same about her knee. We are at our wits end and her quality of life is gone because she can not walk anymore, something she loved more than anything.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Walt.
