P.S. I forgot to mention, besides the hydrocodone and benadryl I'm currently taking, since after the hip surgery, I've been taking a number of different supplements (wife's idea ).

I'll need to find out what exactly, but it's like glucosamine (e.g., move free from costco) and some other stuff.

Also forgot to mention that in the period before the hip surgery in August, I was having acupuncture, 2-3 times a week, for about 10 weeks, with no improvement re. the leg/feet/ankle numbness/burning. That Chinese doctor also had me taking some herbal medicine for inflammation (huo luo xiao lin dan/HLXL).
