Sub Acute perhaps? As the hip pain isn't really the presenting factor ..

I too have to wonder what else will go wrong w/me but don't even want to think about it now as my neck is just going crazy this last year going out so often.. I get Toradol shots more for my neck than my back and use muscle relaxers almost solely for my neck!

Re my back I was going beautifully tho sitting alot lately and then of course I had to reach out in some weird way yesterday and boom the back is starting to go out and it's a nasty tiring pain.

I told my PM yesterday I wanted to get off the pain med by going on another med and that I thought surgery might help with some of the problems and he said "You think surgery will help your pain? Think again"

So ya know that's what he thinks. It's good that he feels that way since he is a PM specialist altho I think that many a good doctor in his/her specialty has been challenged by the amazing results of some very awesome surgeons and what they have to offer...

I like this guy very much and he is a big help to me tho I wonder what he would do if he were living my life.. probably hook up with the best surgeon he knew of to try and recover his life/practice.
