@kburt911 If your pelvis has shifted out of shape, it may cause symptoms like you describe. Surgeons tend to look at SI joint issues. A physical therapist can help with pelvis alignment. Of course there may be more involved, but seeing a PT may help. I have some things I do when my pelvis gets out of alignment and it stops the discomfort. If you look at the link in my prior post about Lumbar Plexus Compression Syndrome, it explains these issues. It produces symptoms similar to spine problems and it’s positive have both issues at the same time. Have you seen a physical therapist for an evaluation?

I have tried PT twice and the pain was sombad when they just started to bring my leg up that the therapist said she didn't want to keep hurting me as I was crying uncontrollably. I was hoping it would be something that PT could help.
