Certainly glad you finaly got your new hip. Now watch out for the Trochantor Bursitis that sometimes comes later. It can be very sneaky. I prefer to treat mine with cold packs then heat then cold again. Always end up with cold. Does take out the inflamation. And resting the joint. Seems to be very pesky. Best.

Interesting!!! I have had PMR for almost five years. On Actemra which has been a miracle drug for me, putting me into remission. About four months ago I developed hip pain that made it painful to walk. I thought it was my osteoarthritis, but my rheumatologist diagnosed it as Trochanter Bursitis. She gave me a steroid injection that removed the pain for six weeks. It is back but not as severe. The possible connection to PMR fascinates me.
