Back With a Capital Vengence!

So much for not freaking out...

Just had a 90 minute massage to try and loosen up my right hip (see new hip drama) and well we couldn't find anything tight or any knots or trigger points that are causing the pain. And then I still had the sharp pain upon standing. WTF? Ibuprofen is not doing a thing, red wine is not doing a thing, and the only thing that works is not putting any pressure on the darned thing.

Seeing as I can't get into my hip doc for five more weeks, I am just going to show up at the ortho center tomorrow morning and not leave until someone will see me!

Looks like someone needs to change her name to Lulu Walls...

Rest day #3.

Two hours of a team of PT's trying to adjust my SI joint. Couldn't get it to budge so I cried and ate a donut and then we tried again and it still didn't budge. Pain hurts :(

MRI was neither good nor bad. No stress fracture or major FAI-ness, but it did show a labral tear and confirmed the fact that I have old lady arthritic hips. 

I really, really think the pain I have been having is coming from my SI joint dysfunction rather than the hip itself so I think we are going to keep trying to manipulate the crap out of it and do some injections to confirm that is it my SI joint and go from there.

Let's just say I am happy with the two months of fun I had this summer and each run I went on I was absolutely stoked because that was one more run that I never thought I would have! Here's to hoping something is going to pop in some joint somewhere soon and I will be back on my merry way :)

AND I couldn't have picked a BETTER day for Season 5 of Parks and Recreation to be released on Netflix!!!

Rest day #5. More SI beating at PT. No improvement. Docs threw around words like microfracture procedures and labral repairs and I just go la la la la la la la la!

Rest day #6

Feeling better today! I don't know if it is the 800 mg of ibuprofen I have been taking every 4-5 hours today or the fact that my PT duct taped my pelvis together yesterday and I wore my SI belt all day, but I am hopeful that this is SI issues and I can deal with that!
