I just wonder if the groin pain was from arthritis all along....maybe you didn't even have hernias??? I don't trust doctors these days.... why didn't they do an ultrasound or MRI right away??

I just sent an email to my primary doctor at the VA Hospital in Palo Alto requesting that I see a doctor about my ongoing right groin pain. I've had it for years. Kaiser tried giving me five cortisone injections in the right groin, and none of them helped. There's got to be an answer to why I have pain in my right groin every time I get up from a chair or try getting out of my car. I am 89, and I don't want to live the rest of my life with this burden. It's bad enough that I have peripheral neuropathy in both feet. I need a break. Joe Galiardi, Cupertino, CA
