worse pain of my life since child birth and broken sacrum last late summer to all winter.. except acute rib fracture (when moving).  sudden onset of pulsating pain in both hip areas that I started getting post workouts and had just worked out day before on elliptical and week before skiing m/w/f gingerly.  elliptical was tuesday before flight to florida to see amber and brooke.  so ended up in ER on 3/3 after a very painful day at hollywood studios.  absolute worse in line for toy story mania.  so freaking uncomfortable in my lower abdomen.  so much pressure.  that night, wednesday 3/3 after attempting tower of terror at 930 pm and cried on ride from intense pain with every rise and fall...I could not move and troy was at walgreens 3 x for meds, antacids, fleet enemas, heating pad.....pain didn't let up all the next day.  We  visited painfully amber at all star music resort and brooke at her place on way to work (we drove her).   Then skipped out on disney and went to hotel in lots of pain.  Did nothing but try to go to the bathroom with every painful step...needed help with all transfers in and out of bed and position changes. Thought, ureter stones???  muscle tear, infection, severe sypmphis pubis reaction??  So thursday night ER visit after working insurance issues.  CT Scan, cbc, urinalysis , us of uterus etc... All that came back was severe degenerative changes in symphis pubis and leukocytosis in urine.  no bactera.  Did disney springs in wheel chair, no way able to fly home in this pain.  Er dosed me up with fentanyl iv  toradol iv x 2 robaxin iv and for home norco for home 12 pills   had antibiotics from my family drs' PA.  chills no fever and sweating off with antibiotic.   I presume.  will chair epcot saturday, magic kingdom sunday, animal kingdom monday.  much better by monday but still needed wheel chair.  Stomach felt like someone had cut me open and stitches were coming apart post surgery to a swollen abdomen. so tight.  but when i got home i took week off and pain got better and better.  ball in stomach felt smaller and smaller.  got mri ordered for two weeks post ER visit.  showed hematoma in left rectus abdominal muscle above the pubic bone.  scleroitc changes severe to pubic bone.  got a ticket to go out and see dr matsuda in california LA area.  surgery for osteitis pubis scheduled for april and repair of muscle tears and aponeurois of pubic bone where hematoma is.  He also called me at home today since there were technical difficulties with his keyboards speaking with his computer.  It was a relaxing good conversation.  Had yesterday two test doses into hips and only succeeding inducing pain in my psoas ligaments. ouch.  tried running yesterday as prescirbed to induce the hip pain but a mile was alll i could with out aggravating my pubic aponeurosis and loss of stablity.
