Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome Update...

Well, after waiting it out two weeks unfortunately I can officially say that the second cortisone shot to my hip was not successful which I guess happens a lot.

I was really hoping for the relief I got last time but it’s not happening and I need to face that.

The last couple of days have been extremely painful and I think that the cardio I was doing last week really aggravated the hip.

To slow that down I’ll be returning to using the recumbent bike for cardio when I start the workouts again. It’s not my favorite form of exercise but it’s my best choice and it’s available to me whenever I want to use it.

The plan now will just be to hopefully rehab the hip along with my back when I do my home-pt workouts and bike.

But this really sucks and is really, really discouraging.
