Range of Motion Pelvis/Hip Function

12 to 3pm

Joint not as airy (reversing cortisol benefit)
Anterior/Superior aspect of rim burning & pinching esp when sitting & picking things up again
(R) Trochanter Bursa flare swollen & hot 2 inches out still
Stepping forward without discomfort is back before planting foot down (R)
Anterior to superior lax not in good way (R)
Gluteus muscles & Psoas are tight & knotted as a response to super lax sensation at anterior aspect due to cortisol (the bit of injection I was against – the area is already weakened from disuse & unsound structure)
Lower back (R) Psoas/Intra pulling lumbar spine out ward & down as result/twitching
Psoas aches like before again lumbar & anterior (R) Groin burn back in full again & flowing down from pelvis to hip to lower limb chain including out to bursa (R) Pelvic rim anterior/superior now swollen from the site of cortisol injected
Anterior/superior feels even weaker than before & lax
Lumbar back (R) really tight now & knotted
Neck (LS) thoracic/shoulder blade (RS) tight as guitar strings again
Forehead muscles tight from tension & wont release

Function & structure ROM same as before yesterdays procedure
Pelvic balance stability the same as
before yesterdays procedure
Ability to weight bare – Normal Abduct Adduct (R) same as before yesterdays procedure
Ability to walk & normalize (R) side of Gait (R) same as before yesterdays procedure

Again I didn't want cortisol for it wont fix the damage but weaken already weakened area from disuse & neglect over 6 months. Ive got a massive diary that Ive been religious with & below is the excerpt (more info than diary's given couldn't hold)
Day (3) after "dye contrast anesthetic cortisol injection"
anaesthetic portions worn off Summary;
- Flow in/around joint capsule not as airy (reversing cortisol benefit)
- Anterior to superior really lax not in good way
- My quadriceps muscle starting to tight through pelvic to hip to lower limb chain
- Pinching when walk even with crutch, especially sitting down or on side
- Lack of mobility/function, sitting/laying on side/laying on back/weight fully distributed when standing/flexing hip forward to take a step/forget adduction/abduction of hip - still not able to do as before procedure albeit not as uncomfortable when try
- (trochanteric bursa) Pain Scale 5 still, 6 movement
- (pelvis/labrum) Pain Scale 7 still, 9 movement can feel ring or horseshoe pulling front to side all else extremely lax not in natural way
- (psoas/intra psoas) Pain Scale 6 still (tighter than a guitar string), 6 movement(rigid as)
- Neck/shoulder blade back thoracic tightness from compensating gate/crutch the lesser of two evils :) Pain Scale 2 still (tight as hell), 4 movement (only due to tightness) massive improvement from my wonder hands physio & less with crutch useage/walking with
Now my surgeons got a great contrast, I hope that further helps his efforts. Although I know full extent & what it means to my full function possibility post op - wont be known until he puts a camera in there.. I at least for the first time feel a little hope to me coming back through this physically.. albeit with three nasty scars to fix.
Its a shame & disappointment that this has taken 6 months to be applied & noted. I could of avoiding allot of of further discomfort/disuse/degeneration, had the surgery I need & been finished with the acute phase of rehab by now. I have lost allot of income, business & severely impacted my career thus far. I'm even being robbed of my ability to spend time with family abroad for Christmas this year. It will take a year to get my strength & body back post op/acute rehab phase considering the damage isn't any worse than want we can visibly see thus far.
I will post the actual Xray contrast of joint next week & am going to post the results of the (secondary injury) (2) bursa trochanteric cortisol shots later on this week.
