absolutely right for sure. I have illiopsoas issues and an injection has really helped a lot but I still have pain around the back, side, etc..from time to time. My first OS told me that if that illiopsoas gets fired up, it can hurt all over the place. Of course, there as also a feeling in my case that the MOM is causeing some pain, but if I have learned one thing about hips, when the soft tissue gets inflamed, you can feel it just about everywhere. I have noticed that some of the other pain I was having has gone down some and the injection is no where near where that pain is. Hopefully, it will sort itself over time. I don't know about your case, but in mine, my OS will consider releasing if the injections don't work and it remains chronic. I have been reading up on that and it does seem that it works for most people who have it done. Plus it can be done with scope which makes it waaaaay less invasive. Tis a last resort but one I will absolutely push for if mine comes back the way it was. I had this type of surgery on my elbow 14 years ago after 2 years of chronic tennis elbow and it worked like a charm. I feel your pain though..it is hard to be patient when you are in pain that naggs at you. Many of us out here are there.
