Hey there MW... Sorry to be a bit gruff right now, but I think you need to uncurl out of your ball, and move. Get blood flowing thru your spine, from brain to toe. You are creating a much worse scenario by doing that (curling up in a ball) You are training your brain and body to exist this way
No disrepect intended
I have similar sht. OA, serious/semi serious cervical stenosis, degenerative disk degeneration disease, many mucked up disks, etc etc.
My hip , am guessing, was just part of this whole slew of symptoms
Do NOT lie there all day- Full stop
Get a little 'bing' relief from aspirin to tramadol or
?, and move! Move. Sit get up walk.
Wrap your head around getting better even a tiny bit
NO surgery or drugs are going to make it all work for you
I remember your challenges.. and I still have them, by the way.. post BHR, and with problems
BUT, they are much better
OR maybe my "head" is much better- My thinking. My readjusting my thoughts that I was dying kinda thing
You have a big spirit, I can tell. Move forward with it
Warmly
