Is this some sort of new spam? Or email hack?

I am only 43 and have avascular necrosis due to fracturing my acetabulum (friggin cherry pie RR)

Anyway at times it can be really limiting. I can't train as much as I would like, I walk with a limp most days, can't run, and hiking can be pretty painful.

Doc says wait as long as possible but I am reading elsewhere patients getting it done younger. No matter what I will need a revision at some point even if I wait until I am 55 right? So why not get it done now?

Looking for opinions.

I am only 43 and have avascular necrosis due to fracturing my acetabulum (friggin cherry pie RR)

Anyway at times it can be really limiting. I can't train as much as I would like, I walk with a limp most days, can't run, and hiking can be pretty painful.

Doc says wait as long as possible but I am reading elsewhere patients getting it done younger. No matter what I will need a revision at some point even if I wait until I am 55 right? So why not get it done now?
