Default Insurance aside healing is easier when younger.
I know two people who had this surgery. One when she was 62 another when she was 68 both say that they wish they had not put it off ( they both waited until they couldn't walk without pain ) as their increased quality of life was greatly improved. The friend who was 68 took alot longer to heal than the one who was 62. They both now walk 5 miles three times a week with no problem. This is anticdotal info but something to consider.
