Buffbodz, the cortisone injections worked great for me and made it a lot easier to sleep. I'll just keep getting them until they don't work but my workouts are much better. Hey, for $35 with insurance for two shots and no pain, that's a bargain.
I don't know what pain killers you're taking but stay clear of Vicodin or any of the similar drugs since they will only aggravate the condition once they wear off. Ask me how I know.
I was taking Elavil 10mg at bedtime and once that stopped working I would switch to Tramadol 50 - 100mg. You can mix these with Ibuprofen but that got old so I went for the Cortisone and have been pain free for two weeks now and my range of motion has improved. He said it could work for as long as 8 months or not. The injections weren't that bad and I consider it a lot easier than a prostate exam or going to the dentist. The end result sure is better. Sure beats joint replacement.
I guess Michael Clarke Duncan would have to wear his shoes on his knees to play Sergio.
Okay, he was cheap with some things and generous with others. Mostly generous with himself. He did buy me a great bottle of Cologne once and it wasn't cheap but I'm sure he got a great deal on it.
