He will continue to treat my shoulder pain, which he believes is secondary to fall/break I had in 2006.

He believes the ongoing pain in my hips is actually pain coming from my lower back so is sending me back to dr. who implanted my SCS's. He believes the placement of one of the battery packs, in particular, may be causing increased pain in the area as it is close to where I had the fusion years ago. Either that or he feels it's a mechanical problem or soft tissue problem.

So, it's back to pain dr. #1, but with good news...no autoimmune disease
