Jess,
I'm SO GLAD to hear that your hip pain is better!!!
Your virus sounds like what I had. I was so very, very sick! I caught three things back to back. The second thing I caught sounds like what you have. Fortunately, I managed to keep it out of my lungs! I could not even get out of bed for two straight days and had no voice what-so-ever. I was sick for about three weeks with that one. I hope you and hubby get better soon. My hubby never gets sick, either, and he caught a "mild" case...went to work anyway. Poor guy. =(
Let's keep hoping that your cortisol doesn't drop. If it's all good, maybe you can stretch out your shot schedule to longer than three months.
My SI shot worked, too. It took the full two weeks to take effect, though. Although, with the lidocaine in there right after the shot, I felt better. That made the doc smile. He also told me that you never have just one bad SI joint. He said they are always both bad, just one is worse than the other. He told me to expect the other one to flare up, which it did. But the symptoms aren't nearly as bad on the right as they were on the left. It's not bad enough for me to go through the pain of an injection on the right. My SI injection was very painful, but I will be repeating it...eventually.
My energy is coming back. I think it was the illness and the stress that zapped me.
My neck is a mess. I'll post on my own thread what happened. But, I think I'm in trouble and there is no medical solution. =(
