Thought I would post an update since I haven't been here in a long time. I am still trying to figure out why I am still in so much pain since my right THR in dec 2012. Since my accident in april, 2013, I have not been able to rehabilitate my hip and leg. Meaning, I can walk and work, but can't walk long distances, can't work out on the treadmill, have lots of thigh/back pain, and have generally had a tough time getting better - I still limp. My last visit to the dr. resulted in going to a surgeon to have my sacroiliac joint evaluated and they may be moving towards fusion. I had an injection last week, and the SI joint pain is gone, but I have a lot of what might be greater trocanter bursitis - which aches and burns on the outer and inner side of my hip. Does that sound reasonable? The hip xrays were normal. So, I keep trying to learn about it and figure it out. I never had a leg length problem prior to the hip replacement but my hip alignment is off and my right leg is now shorter than my left. I don't know. This is so complicated. I also have a 35 degree scoliosis which seems to complicate it further.
