First off, before anyone comments, my midwife is completely aware of what is going on…she doesn’t have any other ideas on how to help me. This pain is worse than ANY gallbladder attack that I have had.
I have tried Chiropractor, massage therapy, the maternity belt, acupuncture, (in my other pregnancies I DID try physical therapy). I also have tried little bit of moist heat. The only thing that has seemed to help a little was the acupuncture. Everything else hasn’t done squat and the massage therapy even made it to where I could barely walk when I was through.
I am carrying her low, VERY low, and she is very active. Tylenol doesn’t cut it and I don’t want to take narcotics for this constant pain.
Is there anything else that I can do that someone else may have done to help?

I recently was diagnosed with bilateral AVN. My Dr. performed a core decompression on one side within 3 days of diagnosis. It has now been 3 months on crutches and physical therapy and the pain is getting worse. It hurts more than the pain pre-surgery. I’m afraid that the procedure failed and I need a total hip replacement. I’m in my mid 30’s and frustrated with the pain and inconvenience. Has anyone else experienced this as well?
No, I’m not joking. I had never heard of such a thing and thought it was totally rediculous but I just started going last week. I had a fourth degree tear with labor and have had nothing but problems since then. I still suffer from pain in general and incontenence issues. I was just curious as to what others experienced with this. No one ever knows what I am talking about. I did not make this up. Please, no insensitive comments. It’s a sore subject…no pun intended.
I have ma-alignment in my knee and have gone to physical therapy for about 4 months. When I run, I have a lot of pain. I wear a DonJoy knee brace that was fitted by my psychical therapist. I ice it and do all of my exercises. Any advice on pain management. I usually come home with tears because I am in so much pain. Could there be something else wrong?
I have lost over 50% use of the arm and shoulder and have not gotten a good nights sleep in months. The pain has gone into my neck and cortizone shots have not helped. I have had MRI, x-rays, physical therapy, seen a chrioprator, use ice and heat, advil and muscle relaxers. Anyone that can help me or give me other advice? I am sick of doctors and sick of the pain and I can not help but wonder why this is still bothering me.
