HIDDEN HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Kris Jenner, the 66-year-old matriarch and momanger, saw an orthopaedic specialist on Thursday's episode of 'The Kardashians' after having severe hip pain. She told her doctor that she "literally couldn't walk" across the room without a cane the previous week.

"I'm finally biting the bullet. I'm here to see the doctor because I have this excruciating hip pain," Kris said. "I got an extensive set of x-rays, I had an MRI, I had a CT scan and everything else."

"The pain that I've been feeling seems to be getting in the way of my life and that is not something that I can really tolerate or have the patience for," she continued. "I have this beautiful fabulous life and I have so many kids and grandkids that I want to share it with. All I wanna do is fix the problem and move on so I can live the best, longest life possible."

After looking through her MRI images with her boyfriend Corey Gamble and the doctor, Kris was informed that she urgently requires a hip replacement. The reality star said that she was stunned by the information and worries that the procedure is an indication of her aging. The thought of using a walker while recuperating from the treatment even made her giggle in disbelief.

"Hearing the doctor say that I need a hip replacement is very scary for me," Kris said. "It reminds me of somebody older than I feel on the inside and somebody who is going to have challenges for the rest of her life. This is serious."

After deciding to go ahead with the surgery, Kris told her mother Mary Jo "MJ" Shannon, as well as her children Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian, that she would prefer to have the hip replacement now rather than wait until she is no longer able to recover properly in five years. But as she considered how her body might change as she grew older, she became upset.

"It's just a mindf—," Kris said before starting to cry. "You just realize you don't have that much more time. It's like suddenly, I can't do all the things… My hip goes out, my knee is torn. I have an eye infection, I can't see. I have the TV up too loud and Corey says I can't hear. It's like I feel like Humpty Dumpty."

Kris claimed she was considering more surgeries, such as a facelift and breast job, while informing her family that she must have a hip replacement.

Since Kris is going in, Kim asked if there were any further cosmetic surgery operations she wanted done. Kris replied that there were, but was unsure if they would be performed simultaneously.

"I'd love to have my boobs re-done, I mean, who wouldn't?" Kris said, with Khloe advising that once she's in there to have all of the doctors "line up like a NASCAR cockpit or whatever it's called."

This will not be the first time Kris will be going under the knife. She also revealed that she got a facelift done for Kim's wedding. She also claimed to have got botox, fillers, laser treatments and a boob job in the 80s in an interview on E! She also got a neck lift in 2011, a procedure which was broadcast on KUWTK. There have also been speculations over the years that she had a rhinoplasty procedure, a claim Jenner has vehemently denied.
