It does limit him from doing what he wants to do.
Radiation, as in all procedures, comes with risks. The options are probably more than "radiation". Go for the consult. Losing 20 degrees of movement IS an issue!

We will go now just waiting for our turn off the waitlist.

You are right this is an issue. I am coming out of almost 5 years being gaslighted by the Rush doctors telling me "it's not a serious condition" because it's not cancer, and their overly conservative approach is frustrating. It's too bad because both procedures he has done have had great outcomes, the pain is gone and my son lives a normal teen life (the 20 degrees don't affect daily use of his leg) but they aren't willing to help us with this new problem
