Bike and quality foam roller time. Feeling very optimistic about the hip lately. Dunno what it is, maybe the lovely weather! PM: Wandered around downtown to finish my Christmas shopping for at least 2 shopping miles. I love how the moment I write how optimistic I feel about the hip I get a call from my hip doc's office. So I was going to do this fancy imaging study to try and determine if my hip problem is in fact coming from the laxity issue versus just psoas issues. I had since convinced myself that it is all psoas and will magically get better and I won't need surgery. Well turns out doc decided the best thing for me to do is an arthroscopic "exam." He thinks that would be the most effective way to figure out what is going on and then if he finds something he will go ahead and fix it. He is going to see me tomorrow morning to talk things through :( |
