hip update 2

well, we just came back from hopt.  My hand is swollen and hurts, so this is going to be as short as possible.

doc called this morning and said hip was broke.  we went to doc today.  there was a communication snafu between us and the doctor because of the PA's phone call telling us Jim's hip is broke.  The MRI report says there is a break.  The break is not the type of break that requires surgery.  Just complete bed rest and for Jim to stay off of it.  We told that doc that jim's been on it and it doesn't hurt anymore and he said that that just support his view that there is something else going on in that hip, and that it's not broken, despite the MRI report.  He said there is a lot going on in the MRI.  He wants Jim to see another doctor.  He thinks Jim has bone cancer.

so, we don't know what to do.  we go to another doctor for a second opinion, and the doc will say, well, i can see why he wants you to be seen.  I think you should have a pet scan.  And then we schedule a pet scan and then...?????????

Jim couldn't/wouldn't have any treatment, sooo.  I don't know.  I'm so weary from working one handed, but mainly fighting off the enemy.  okay, gotta run.
