query for Ethel or or anyone

[Guest guest]

I have seronegative arthritis, which Dr. Whitman is treating, and I am

much better. But I still have pain on my left side above my SI, where

an ultra sound found a small tear, healed, with scar tissue. This is

the source of my problem. It gets worse, more inflamed, as the day

goes by, and by night the pain is referred to my thoracic spine.

Whitman has no suggestions. Anyone have any ideas? I tried physical

therapy--massage--and it made me worse. I tried a cortisone shot, and

it helped for part of a day. I'm not sure how or if the autoimmune

problem is involved here.

Thanks.
