Review: After Chiropractor, MRI, X-rays, Physical Therapy, consulting with 2 GP's and countless suggestions from TOTVrs, I noticed online that Cortisone injection can reduce inflammation so went to Dr. Nathan Falk, Sports Medicine, got the cortisone shot yesterday and hopefully this will help. Bottom-line he suggests that hip surgery is in my future but NOT sure that will ever happen since I have a bad history of stroke all thru my family, so surgery is not an option.
As of this posting have noticed an improvement. Thanks to all my TOTV friends for your input, keep your fingers crossed for me.

Jeannie, I wish you continued good health and cessation of pain. But don't rule out surgery without researching a little more if the time comes the pain returns.


I hope that it never needs to happen, but know that improvements and discoveries every day make the pool of knowledge greater in every way.


Again...sending all good wishes.
