Crohn’s Disease, Sarcoidosis, Hip Surgery and whatever else I have!

OK. I had promised to pop up an X-ray of my hip - and here it is. Actually unless you have the trained eyes of a medical professional you can’t really tell that what you are looking at is a bad hip. But the best way to describe the issue is,… basically the knob on my femur ( leg bone ) where it connects to the pelvis ( hip ) should be nice and smooth not flat. The whole upper part of that knob is in effect,….dead. So here it is. My dead hip area x-ray…. YAY. Click on the image for a larger view.

OK. There is another image that I am putting up here in the interest of medical debate and for my friends and family who are curious about my health. I have to be honest and say that even tho these are X-rays, my genitalia are semi-visible. I would hope we can handle this like adults and that you realize the seriousness and purpose of this web site to to be honest about my condition and my health. And sometimes there will be things here that are frankly, reveling. I’m putting this up in the hope that this and the rest of my site can help people cope with their condition and help my friends and family cope with me. I trust that you all understand that. PLEASE DO NOT LOOK IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED. Thank you for your understanding. Please click here for the other X-ray.
