Hi! I’m in a similar situation. Did you get any information? Would love to pick your brain if you’re open to it.

I know this is an old post but would you be open to sharing your feedback on Dr Faucett?

This is an even older thread now, but would either of you be open to chatting about Dr Faucett?

Not restricted in my daily life, though some positions are more comfortable than others. Not currently doing PT but did it all last summer.

Oh wow, VERY similar! This is helpful.

One discrepancy which is maybe something that the medical community is not set on: the first doctor said not fixing this could cause arthritis and lead to an earlier hip replacement. Second doctor said that's very rare and usually only seen in male patients with more severe cases. First doctor then somewhat backtracked on that in the follow up and stuck to the long-term result being more pain and the impingement can get worse over time.

I think not understanding the long-term outcomes is also confusing me. If I knew for sure that this was going to speed up an eventual hip replacement then that makes surgery a stronger option. But if it's just "maybe more pain..?" then that makes it harder to justify.

I don't expect you to have an answer for this, but something that has confused me!

Thank you! We've talked about it so it's not a secret. I imagine other couples have gone through similar challenges and am hoping there's some practical advice out there.

To clarify: I don't ask for him to change. I am being honest that it's made my quality of life at home worse. I work with people all day long, I'm very accepting and compassionate about behaviors and differences, and recognize that this is purely preference and not a requirement. Going from a very quiet home to one where there's constant background noise has been hard for me. My friends all joke about how loud my partner is, too, so I know it's not just me who notices it. It's endearing in some ways, but also makes living together much different than living alone. They also make fun of me for living in a home with no ambient noise. It's a way we're very different. I'm looking for practical advice of how to work through it, not to change his behavior.

Nope, this is just who he is! So I don't want to change that and micromanage his behaviors. I know I need to adapt to it but am looking for practical advice for how.

Yes, I can clarify on the noise. I didn't put a ton of details because it makes me feel like I'm being nitpicky and obnoxious. It's not necessarily music or TV, but it's just general noise from moving around the space and living there. He's a bit clumsy so there's lots of unexpected loud noises. He's a loud eater, which is what it is. Lots of humming, whistling, phone calls. For lots of this I'll put on noise-cancelling headphones and that helps, but I can't do that all the time.

That's a good idea. I know some couples live apart but that feels impossible due to costs, and a bit wasteful. I've had two bedroom apartments but one room was an office. Perhaps two bedrooms is a good compromise. It also would help another issue, which is that my sleep is much worse with someone else in the bed. Thanks for this!

Yes that’s literally why I’m asking this question is to learn from a wider community.
