I went to see Dr. Vitanzo this morning. He said I have a partial labral tear and bursitis in my hip. I had a HUGE cortisone shot. I am to do nothing for 2 days and then I can start light activities for 5 days. Then I can start back to running if I am not hurting. Oh, and I get to continue going to PT. I go back in a few weeks to discuss options if this doesn't work. I am relieved that I am not being pushed into surgery. I will keep you all posted and thank you for the well wishes.

That's great that you don't need surgery. I had a total hip replacement last year and I was only 36. It's been a year and I still don't feel 100%. I can't run...ever...but I'm ok with that...lol. Just keep doing your PT...that really helps. Good luck.
