Good morning!
I've been using this forum for two years now, but this is the first time when I have enough courage to write a post.
First of all I'd like to apologize for any language mistake that I will most probably commit, because of not being an English native speaker. I'll do my best to speak my mind clearly.
My story is quite long, and I'm afraid to be out of options right now, but I'm humbly hoping for any insight from your experience.
I've been living with hip pain (first left, than also right) for 12 years.
In the meantime I've tried so many things, but finally some surgeons were able to put their hands on me.
Since 2015 I've had 4 arthroscopies (2x left hip, 2x right) and 4 other surgeries.
In 2018 my doctor performed BTHR surgery, and then in a few months BTHR revision (to cut out some osteophytes).
After these surgeries I was still in pain, so I went through another surgery - this time with THR corail pinnacle ceramic onceramic put -this time THR.
Since 2019 I've been living with a pain of a brand new source, this time the pain was in the buttocks.
Tissues that were changed by my surgeon seem to be not functioning correctly. They're stiff and they block my range of motion as well as correct movement pattern. Right knee is rotated inward and my feet outward.
I've been doing everything as you always advice on bonesmart: so resting, elevating, icing and so on.
I went through a lot of physiotherapy, I exercised so much, I've tried different PTs, I've even given a try to pilates as well - which to some point gave the best results.
In June 2020 my symptoms got worse, so from then I'm not able to exercise- almost at all.
Since October my left groin started to hurt seriously and since then I was barely able to walk without support.
My doctor asked me to do all of the necessary tests: X-ray, CT scan and MRI, but he says that they are clear.
In 2020 I went for an opinion from two other doctors, but they couldn't help me.
When I thought that it just can't possible be any worse, I dislocated my right hip two weeks ago!
Finally I decided to write here, because I couldn't find any similar case neither on Polish THR site nor here.
Right now fortunately I have a job, that I love, but with pain and insomnia, movement issues I'm not able to be at least functional there, so I'm on a sick leave.
This year I'm turning 33, so it's quite depressing.... on the other hand it was more depressing when I was 25!
I hope that you will be able to somehow relate to my story.
Best wishes and thank you for reading!
