    Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Been doing therapy daily and massage therapy every other day. The pain is somewhat less now but range of motion and strength is still bad. Dr. has scheduled an MRI for monday as I'm not improving like they want. She ( the Dr.) seems to think that the lack of progress is a sign of deeper issues. So as of now I'm still having to walk with a cane to help keep some of the weight off my hip and leg. When I get the report from the Dr. I'll try to let you all know whats up. Thanks Crash for posting my message and again thanks everyone for your well wishes. Don

    just wanted to give a quick update. Heading off to PT shortly. Things are improving a bit. Still having pain and a lot of stiffness in my leg. MRI results were "inconslusive" what ever that means. At least I'm not facing any surgery it looks like. They seem to think therapy will take care of the problem, andif therapy goes well today I can hopefully go back to work on limited duty sunday. At least I hope so. I'll keep you all updated.

    I also want to thank everyone again for the well wishes.
