So I had a(nother) denervation in August, since when I am pleased to report my back/leg pain has been a lot better.
But without everything below the waist hurting, I realised I've now got a hell of a lot of localised hip pain.
I've just been to the doctor who examined me and diagnosed "bursitis" which he explained brilliantly by saying, "You've heard of housemaid's knee? That's bursitis. You've just got it in your hip."
...
There's not a lot you can say to that.
Probable cause: awkward gait due to spinal nerve damage.
Treatment: OTC ibruprofen three times a day, every day, for three weeks, go back to the quack if it doesn't improve after that.
Otherwise: is anyone doing NaNoWriMo this year? I'd really like a writing buddy/accountability partner. I'll even write a Professionals fic for NaNo if it means someone will get on my case about my progress. Please?
What's new with you?
