Re: Awaiting a phone interview with Dr. Conway
Hi Helen, Yes, I've had one MRA in the thigh/hip area. It's not too bad. I think the worst part was the numbing injections that they give you first. It just felt wierd when the doc injected the contrast/dye into the leg. It wasn't painful at all, just an odd feeling. After, my hip felt full and the ...

Re: Awaiting a phone interview with Dr. Conway
Thanks Jax87 - I'm thinking Dr. kelly is probably the best man for the IFI and labral tear. I know I have to fax my paper work over to his office. I'm awaiting to meet with my currently ortho doc this week. If he feels my issue is to complex for him then I'm off to see Dr. Kelly. Glad to hear your d...

Re: Awaiting a phone interview with Dr. Conway
Wow!! It's crazy Helen.... I'm wondering if I need to get the Potter MRI for the spine as well. Is that even possible or maybe a CT Scan. Yes, the first ortho doctor made me waste 9 months which I could have had my IFI and labral tear surgery already out of the way. I wasn't a hip replacement so he ...

I initially had a sciatica feeling and went to my GP about 2 years ago. She gave me exercises to do ...

Re: Awaiting a phone interview with Dr. Conway
Hi Helen, Thank you for responding to me. I agree about getting the hips stable prior to PN surgery. I think having an IFI and labral tear in my left hip has caused my pelvic to be out of alignment. I have two good hip surgeons in mind for my IFI fix and labral repair. My 1st guy is a great UCONN do...
