I had a hip replaced in september 2013 and ever since cannot walk due to extreme pain in my buttock.  I can walk about 100 steps and then the pain is so bad that I have to sit down.  After I sit for a minute or so then I can get up and walk another 100 steps.  I have had injections in my back and a muscle near the hip, but nothing has helped at all.  My surgeon keeps telling me my hip is fine.  He sees me walking into his office and he thinks I can walk. 

I gained 30 pounds since the surgery because I can't walk very long.

I'm so frustrated.  I just don't know what to do.

I'm thinking of going to another surgeon and see if they have any suggestions.
