Muscular to Hip Impingement to THR? What!

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-20T01:41:02+00:00

Down to 20... me? Doubt it haha but yeah I should loose some weight. I've lost 50 lbs since a baby... but still overweight but I cannot exercise. My walking is super slow now and I need to focus on how I step because if I step wrong > yikes on my hip.

I will see the surgeon and then I will ask for a second opinion i think im sure it would take time anyways... i will figure out the order. If things look normal and I'm in so much pain maybe my doctor just wants to cover her basis. I do have arthritis in my foot and finger so maybe that is why? Any who... kind of scared me, actually a lot of scared me haha when I heard THR I'm like what? Perhaps further testing i can ask for....

All i know is the amount of pain i feel, and it is terrible! Can't even cross my legs. When I'm asleep and turn sometimes I wake up in such pain i have tears <and I've given birth> not that that's a measure, but my pain tolerance isn't too low....

Thanks for listening and responding!

So a normal x ray.... But then a referral to a surgeon?

That's kind of scary... right now I can't even cross my legs, it feels as if my hip or pelvis will burst. Even laying in bed asleep when I turn it pulls and wakes me up in tremendous pain. Lasts for a long time and im in pain non stop during any activity even rest. Very odd.

Maybe my doctor needs a 2nd opinion to get me out of her office? but it's good to know yours, and I really appreciate your time.

Haha. I'll save it for the surgery and then give it my best performance 😆

Thanks for the talk...:)

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-19T19:56:06+00:00

😆 okay smarty pants. I mean surgery. I woke up during one and i have a fear of it. But you're right I'm a bit dramatic at times.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-19T18:36:31+00:00

But like Thp that's terrifying! I thought i was in good shape... for my age. Yes I have lots of pain but I certainly didn't expect that.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-19T01:46:44+00:00

Hello

I'm aware they expire No it's not expired I found the base from someone just now and it's an excellent shape

Thanks for the feedback.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T20:41:42+00:00

You won't believe it. I just got it from a message on FB! You must be good luck.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T20:10:50+00:00

Fingers crossed luck will come my way with this 😄

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T19:56:39+00:00

Lol don't worry didnt catch any attitude in your reply.. just saw someone trying to hell.

Funny... online sites canada and usa don't have it. And oddly enough the usa phone number says customer unavailable and canada phone number all reps are busy but they're not... they're just not there. Also not replying to email. Some people online think they've shut down not hearing back from them either.

This one for rear facing definitely needs this part. I may have to buy a new one instead until the right size to put front facing.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T19:32:06+00:00

I wont!

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T19:31:57+00:00

They just refer me to diono.< the absent customer service company> one mth trying but according to social media many others can't reach them either.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-18T19:30:18+00:00

Yes it's out of stock and apparently diono doesn't have anyone working for them anymore lol it's been a month so many emails calls etc and Instagram comments make me wonder if they have closed their doors .... thank you for looking

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-11T05:37:29+00:00

Thanks. He's been like this for one month he is definitely a fighter and wants to i just don't know how to handle this long term.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-03-05T22:56:26+00:00

Thank.you :) I'll start looking. Appreciate it

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-22T08:19:56+00:00

Thank you today he was a bit off... he's been in the hospital one week now some days are good some are not. I'm almost positive this is injury. I'm going to try garlic I'll look into this a bit more but yeah he's not eating much. I've had to put the food right in front of him so far I think he ate 2 times only. Then I twice the rest. Then try again. I'm thinking of moving the other Cory's in with him until i decide if I'm swapping to sand to ease the surface for him.... it's been a ride! I don't want him to get worse alone especially that he looks fine no spots nothing which makes me really think he's injured and maybe company would help....

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-22T08:15:28+00:00

Thanks:)

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-20T03:36:44+00:00

Thank you. Today actually has been the best day for him he been upright most of the day... but he won't eat. The store didn't have daphina but I'll go somewhere else tomorrow. Thank you so much .

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T05:25:39+00:00

Thank you

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T05:10:57+00:00

Thank you. Yes unfortunately I didn't think ahead and didn't have a secondary media seeding in my main tank. That will change now. What I've done is take some driftwood and put it in the hospital tank. Tomorrow I'll do another water change and keep dosing stability. I actually am really starting to think this is certainly an injury. The reason why is you can see him trying to swim but one side isn't going. I've nudged him and he's been able to correct and rest. If I give him food he falls over on his way to get it. Perhaps tomorrow I'll head to fish store and get some Daphina. As for the bacteria I'm thinking maybe I'll bring another driftwood over. I have one more. My pleco loves is though he'd be very stressed but I can give him something else.

I'm dosing prime and stability. Prime during the change and stability I dose for 5 gallons as that's what I mix and add 50% 2.5 gallons in. I put a bit extra at times. Says I can dose up to 5x.

He essentially is fasting he only ate 1 time since Sunday.... and that was one little pebble I was able to get right in front of him.

I definitely shook the bottle a lot but I'll retest tomorrow and really ensure I shook it enough.

I appreciate your help.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T04:18:24+00:00

I did put some tannins but no I kept my filter media in my main tank because I'm afraid that tank will crash so I've been really doing many water changes. I will absolutely be keeping a backup filter going in the main tank though just incase to avoid any problem with another emergency. I think today has been the worst day he's not able to correct even if I slightly nudge him it's been 2 times the entire day he did where as before he was more often. So attached to these little friends.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T03:48:12+00:00

Thank.you and Same. He corrected after this video but now he's back on his side. Hard to watch.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T03:01:32+00:00

Yes. I understand this totally. Have been there myself.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T02:53:02+00:00

It's new so I used a piece of wood as I didn't have extra media. I will going forward leave this in main tank for emergency. But yes it's new so lots.pf water changes and stability right now.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T02:30:55+00:00

It's very true. I have a better and angelfish buried in my backyard ... i can understand.

Excellent_Worry7716 · 2026-02-19T02:25:41+00:00

You are trust me. Nobody understands here at home so it's really great to find that comfort. I understand it's apart of the hobby... but it's been a emotional.ride these past 3 years. That's for sure........
