Phatbird,

Condolences on all you've got going on. To say that sounds challenging, I know, is an understatement.

From experience I've recently learned that in some people it can be hard for doctors to differentiate between pain caused by lumbar/SI issues, and pain caused by severe osteoarthritis of the hip. In some, both present with the same symptoms. I don't know if can be helpful to you, or if you've already strode that path, but FYI...

Wishing you the best.
