Interesting that treatment paths seem all over the place. My recent visit, doc did a labs but when the visit came he didn't discuss them. When I asked, he said they really aren't reliable. In my inside anger I wondered, why then did I even have the thing! He is also saying they just ask how a patient feels and work off that.

I've had hip pain also, but I think it's related to the strenuous exercise I do. I just take tylenol every night before I go to bed. I feel that if it were something worse, tylenol would not address the issue.

Now, struggling with doctor not calling me back after having left two messages for a referral to rehab for a new compression sleeve. Trying not to burn bridges, but really wondering why no response.
