I saw the PA at medical today and I told him I was at a 9 on the pain scale for my hip. He asked me if I was taking my Tylenol. I said yes but it’s not even touching the pain in my hip and leg. He then told me to buy higher-dose ibuprofen in the canteen! WTF????? (I have osteonecrosis — death of bone tissue due to lack of oxygen supply — in my left hip and have been awaiting surgery for more than three years.)
