Hi ruby how have you been doing?

Hi Danny,
I've not been too brilliant unfortunately. Had a series of falls due to my hip just giving out. I ended up in A&E sobbing, begging them to do something, but all they did was give me a Tramadol and told me to lose weight.
I've since had my MRI Mr Treacy requested and i'm awaiting the results from him.
I've even been to see a chiropractor, just for some advice and his opinion - and it turned out to be VERY enlightening. He took a set of his own xrays and compared them to the ones the hospital took.... Apparently I have disc bulges and a 6th lower lumbar vertebrae compared to most people who have 5. My surgeons would have known this but neglected to tell me
I also have 50% less bone structure than someone my age should have, my whole left side isn't level and is leaning right into my hip and my pelvis isn't straight. I'm falling apart pretty much.
He agreed though that my Dysplasia is 50% of the problem, but what's making it worse is all of the above problems which is affecting my hip in the worst way possible. They're attacking it almost.
