Diagnosis - Heterotopic Ossification


It's taking a little longer then planned to get back to pushing pedals. The anti-inflamitories have eased matters up a bit and taking it easy has almost gotten me back to normal...at least my version of normal.

Final diagnosis...heterotopic ossification in the soft tissue of my right hip. Sorted details for heterotopic ossification here.



The x-ray shows my right hip and the offending bits of calcium buildup just above the femur most likely due to inadequate irrigation of the area following hip replacement surgery. Thanks Dr. Yun for the souvenir.
