Help me decide if I should schedule an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon?

I have had my run around with docs too. But I would definately go back. You can't live the rest of your life like that. You may have to go through a few doctors but you will find the one that will help you. My brother was recently diagnosed with crohn's disease after nearly 6 years of doctors not willing to help him figure out what his problem was. We finally found one that gave us all the answers that he had. Good luck to you!
