Yes, I had severe, debilitating bone pain in my hips mostly. It had gotten so bad that I could barely walk. Once I had my surgery that pain was gone. The surgery did not help with the muscle, tendon and joint pain from fibromyalgia, degenerative disc disease and osteopenia.

@cindyt63 - did your bone density increase after the surgery? Were you taking meds for it previously? I'm pretty uneasy about taking bisphosphonates Fosamax, etc. I know about those "small risks" from certain medications. My husband took a fluoroquinolone (Cipro) and was the rare statistic: his Achilles tendon snapped and really altered his physical health greatly.
