Kenny B Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Ahh, mate, that sucks. I have DDD in the L5/S1. I had an MRI done maybe 10 years ago, and they said I had DDD there too. It's better known as "old age". Still living with it; stretching and mild meds.

Shankster Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Woke up this morning and my shoulder was “stuck†just like before. Pretty sure I had a botched surgery. We are at 5 months out now and I'm still having recurring issues. Requesting to see a new doc to get a different opinion. Might have to start to learn how to play left handed.

RoverRick Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I am happy to report I am mostly healed. I still have some minor pain, more of tired feeling in my shoulder, my elbow is down to 1 1/2 normal size and no rib pain. I returned to work, actually I started a new job last week, and no major issues. I can still tell there was a problem, but 95% healed.

ole gray Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Having an MRI tomorrow afternoon to find out what's causing my left hip to give out on me. I had x -rays last week and no hip replacement needed however the doc still thinks nerve damage tied to my lower back could be the culprit. The best case scenario is bursitis, with a pinched nerve in my spine coming in second. The pain is on the outside of the hip and not in front ,which would have told the doc my hip was wore out. fozcycle 1 Quote Ping G430 Max Driver 10.5 Degree Titleist TSR1 4, 5, & 6 Hybrids Titleist T350 Irons 7 - W48 Cleveland CBX ZipCore 52 56 & 60 Degree Wedges LAB Mezz Max Broomstick Putter / TPT Shaft (Platinum @ 45/78) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just bursitis causing inflammation and they can treat it and I'll be good to go. I've had lower back pain for a looooong time now and was thinking it was just old age and over use.

ole gray Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Ok just returned home from the results of my MRI. My orthopedic doc said I had two bulging discs and a pinched nerve . Initial treatment will be physical therapy and a trip to another doc to have an injection in my spine to see if that provides relief. The pinched nerve is what is causing my hip to hurt so it's related to the lower back. He also did an x-ray on my bad (right) knee and said it didn't look right as the last time he did surgery some of the cement had come loose from a prior surgery. I'm literally falling apart.
