notacopy, did the PT you saw specialize in lymphedemea? A PT who deals with this should be able to make a call on this and figure out what to do for you or provide massage training and treatment for you..

No he didn't. I'm thinking now it might be polymyalgia rheumatica. The symptoms described on the Mayo website mimic mine exactly. Trying to get an appt with a rheumatologist. Hope i can get one soon!
Thanks for your reply.

No, and I cancelled the remaining PT appointments because he told me he only had time to evaluate my shoulders, although both hips were also very painful. I got an appointment with a rheumatologist for three weeks from now. Hopefully she'll be able to diagnose properly. Thank you for your note.
