Chronic pain years after hip replacement

@heavyphil I have done MRI and EMG/Nerve conduction studies and they were normal. My quad is really stiff and my abductors are really weak. I'm trying to get botox to see if that will help loosen up my quad, which has been responding to dry needling. I've been to a few pain management doctors but they haven't been able to pinpoint the cause of the pain.

I'm seeing a physiatrist who is supposed to be one of the best around so we'll see what he says.

@bekifft You have certainly put in all the work to get to the bottom of the problem.
I’ve heard great things about physiatrists so I hope that’s the solution for you.
