I know that cortisone is a temporary solution and you hope it will help cure the problem and help the pain. <br /><br />I am going through my own hip/bursitis pain problems, and just awaiting for an MRI appointment shortly so I can get my first cortisone treatment. I also suffer from osteoporosis. Do you have that, Julia? Thanks for the info on the bursa, as i did not know they could remove this without touching bone. Hopefully it's not too invasive.<br /><br />Keep us posted and good luck.annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-12112337256603028692019-03-31T09:49:51.787-07:002019-03-31T09:49:51.787-07:00Have you ever had cold laser done?

When I was having bursitis issues, and they were just as painful as you described, I got tired of getting injections so my chiropractor suggested ultrasound. It worked pretty well. One day he suggested we try cold laser.Even though my insurance considered it experimental I gladly paid the $25 to have it done. It's been several years and I'm doing fine. I also found some shoes that made a world of difference - Crocks Skylar Toning shoes. They are wonderful! Whenever I start having knee and hip problems I start wearing them. Unfortunately they don't make them anymore. You can still find them online here and there. I've written to the company and asked them to bring them back as an orthopedic shoe. Maybe if more people ask they'll do it. I wish you well!

I hope the MRI allows the surgery to be scheduled. I always like to read your posts, they are always informative.
