My X-ray and cat scan indicates all was well. But I was still in severe pain. My doctor sent me for the bone scan. They put the nuclear radio active stuff in vein then do one scan immediately. Then they do a second scan three hours later. They determined I had a mechanical failure. My advice don’t give up and don’t wait inside on more testing. (Mayo doc told me same things you were told wait another year) my doc was at JOI and he listened and tired to find out what was wrong.

Thank you for this info. I will definitely be asking whoever my new Dr will be to do this scan.

Thank you @danielcwest, for being a good advocate for yourself and for having a doctor who was listening and knew what to do. When will you know the revision plan? Hopefully, it will be a simple fix. Have a peaceful evening. Chris
