Hey guys!
I'm looking for someone who can tell me what is wrong with me. For several months I have been having pain in my left knee and hip. It has progressively become worse to the point it is not tolerable. I am taking Hydrocodone 5mg/325 for the pain now. The doctor thought maybe it was neuropathic and gave me some Lidoderm patches to try. That didn't do anything for it. So next he took x-rays of my knee and hip from every direction imaginable. They showed nothing except poor bone density (big surprise..haha). So next Monday 10/25 for another bone density test and a full body bone scan. I have no pain when I am in bed, but when I am up in my chair it is really bad. My left side is my weak side and I tend to lean that way when I'm in my chair. I'm wondering if it could be connected to the way I sit in my chair.
Has anyone else had similar pain? I am desperate for a diagnosis and treatment. I don't like taking the pain pills everyday but I just can't handle the pain, and I have a pretty high tolerance for pain. HELP!!!
