You caught me at a bad time. I injured my hip playing golf and in fact I'm on my way to see you orthopedic doctor as they think I got a tear possibly in my hip joint and so I'm in severe pain and I've got to be on opioid temporarily until they get this under control. It just seems we can't get away from it and when it gets the pain gets above 5 and so what a workout through but basically I take Tylenol and marijuana and some nice wine. The key of your pain is exercise walk keep moving and that's the real thing that helps the most especially the pic they just diagnosed with me last year with a arachnoiditis. Look it up but it's caused by surgery incurable disease. Take care and again I hope you are C gives back some hope for you . , thanks
