I highly recommend replacing worn out parts! (& I understand that hip replacement has a much easier recovery process than knee replacement)
Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

Go using up the deductible/hitting OOP max! Though two surgeries in three months sounds exhausting.
I feel like I am super stressed lately even though I don’t have any more on my plate than usual. Not sure why it’s feeling more stressful. Maybe I just need to go back to making a weekly planner spread. I did it for a few years but stopped a couple years ago. But some of the things are onerous tasks that aren’t time-urgent (or aren’t until they are!) which is harder.

That's a lot of surgeries in a row but it makes sense to at least ask.
