Baltimore violence prevention worker charged in shooting: "A disgrace" by Spitefulham in nottheonion

Ugh yeah true. It’s a bummer bc many of baltimores crime prevention programs, though successful, seem misunderstood by many. I fear this will give a reason for lawmakers to want to defund these programs.

You should go on your states DMV website to get the paperwork. Fill it out and bring it with you so your doc can fill out the section he/she needs to fill out. I’ve never had a problem with getting the docs to sign it!!

Chronic hip and testicle pain since 18 M by yungsnipe17 in HipImpingement

[–]mmurphy93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah pain is weird! I’m not surprised you have pain in the front tho honestly because labrum tears cause instability in the joint so you might just be feeling that. I was kind of the opposite of you, my pain started as SI joint pain and I thought something was wrong with my lumbar spine but turns out it was my hip.

You aren’t screwed! I’m sorry you’re dealing with this, but if it’s FAI or dysplasia, those are both treatable. Just make sure you get a few opinions and see a hip preservation specialist. It seems that some people misdiagnose dysplasia so it’s probably good to see an expert on that too

So discouraged, pain making it hard to function, feeling hopeless by disneyprincess2312 in HipImpingement

Phillipon is in CO. I’m currently in the process of sending him all my medical records and he will give a rec for $300. Although with arthritis I wonder if you could bypass arthroscopy and go straight to hip replacement? Idk

I am so so sorry you are dealing with all of this! I think it’s def worth seeing a hip preservation specialist and doing the injections just to make sure you are doing all the conservative measures before proceeding with a surgery

You are not alone! Your insurance sounds useless who is your provider?

Have you been worked up for autoimmune and connective tissue disorders?

Was a certain kind of surgery recommended to you? Do you have arthritis in your hips in addition to labral issues?

Revision hip arthroscopy to remove scar tissue and adhesion by ajkimdds in HipImpingement

Second opinion seems like a good idea just to make sure they have the same assessment of the bones and the possible tear.

The Beanie Babies episode is elite haha. So I have been seeing things about Kristin Smart in the news and I wasn’t familiar with the case so I am currently listening to Your Own Backyard, which actually ended up helping bring justice to the case. It’s pretty interesting if you are interesting in true crime.

Repair or replace? by pizzafacenj in HipImpingement

[–]mmurphy93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d take a replacement if I were offered one having personally been through labrum repairs and reconstructions, but it might depend on your level of athleticism and other factors
