Yes, you are right. R hip = right hip. I simply got a steroid injection into the R hip joint, hoping that would give some pain relief while I wait for a hip replacement. Surgeons here are booked out several months so it may be this winter before I can get the right hip replaced. All I can suggest is that you and your doctor be absolutely certain the pain is coming from your spine before the spinal device is implanted. If pain is not originating in your spine, the trial with the spinal stimulator probably will not give satisfactory results. And you will then know that the pain is originating elsewhere. Good luck!
Have you has positive MRIs? Surgeries?
