Thanks All
It seems I hit a bump in the road it will be three weeks on the 20th. Since Fri. I became crooked hips are level and my torso leans to the left increasing pain in my right butt, leg this is very very pain full, tried some heat, no, tried some ice yes it helps,taking Diazepam and Oxycodone seems to help some. Call the Doctor office today and typical, left a message now waiting for a call back. I hope nothing has moved out of sorts? Gil

wonder if
An injection of Toradol 60mg IM would straighten you up (if you're in muscle spasms). Of course waiting for the doctor to call back is recommended tho you might inquire if this would be recomemended even if you're advised to have films to verify position of things. Good luck Gil. Perhaps whatever it is will just ease off on it's own tho I imagine this has you a bit worried. Hope it's just a small bump in the road to a continuing progressive recovery.

Leaning to the left, huh? Have you considered TV commercials until this subsides
 Not medically qualified but it does sound like your muscles are in spasm and grabbing on your left side. Also agree, heat has never helped in that area for me, only ice. Pain meds are good, muscle relaxers (Torodol per Maria) are better along with anti-inflams if ice helps. Hope your doctor calls back soon. Even orally, Torodol can help quickly. Good luck, Dale
