Hi Frank. Are you able to get a second opinion from outside your area? I know that’s not always possible but it might be helpful in making a decision. I’m so sorry you’re suffering with this pain.

Hello,
Yes I do see several doctors here in Illinois they all say I should do the illiopsoas release but that requires cutting the tendon and I’m not really sure I wanna do something like that because they all say there’s no guarantee it will work . I did go to the Mayo Clinic on July 25 and I did see a specialist there. they have a procedure where they stretch the tendon and not cut it. I might do that. I did have a Cortizone injection while I was there to see how my hip is affected with that and I do have a follow-up video appointment with the doctor at the end of September, we will see how that goes. Then perhaps discuss surgery if I do it will be at the Mail clinic, thank you so much
