labral tear
Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2014 7:51 am
I was told in Ga. I had a small labral tear and possible FAI. Dr. Byrd just told me no FAI and tear might be natural. His PA kept asking me about pn and showed me one of Popeney's test that was negative. She had all his reports where one showed "possible" pn but didn't show that. She said something about not questioning that I had PN. I felt like they didn't want to be bothered with me and didnt believe me. I was to go for MRI, pt, and possible injection. Got an xray and sent home. He told me to keep searching...that I had the internet. The PA didn't want me to go back into the office until I had stopped crying. I told her I wouldn't make a scene. Why get me all the way there to treat me that way? Oh, he made it sound like he was doing me a big favor. He wouldn't answer my questions or give a theory why my hip is sooooo swollen. I'm 47 and my sis is 44. My niece with us is 24. His PA asked if they were my daughters! That's how all this has aged me and wore me down! I know how others here have been treated by medical staff. It shouldn't be this way.
I've never lied about my symptoms. I told the doctors when my burning was easier to deal with. Thought the si fixation might help because I wanted to be 100% cured. I'm actually worse now but its more hip pain..burning is at level 1 or 2. Compared to the 10 I remember, its great! Of course I'm scared that it will come back but I believe that whatever is wrong with my hips is why I began pn symptoms.
Now, after rambling, has anyone had surgery for a "small" labral tear? I don't know which way to go now.
