I just spoke to my doctor--he is as stumped and discouraged as I am. He thinks this is probably beyond his specialty of physiatry and so I'll go next to a neurologist, to investigate nerve damage in the region (possibly with an "uncomfortable" EMG, or nerve/muscle electrical test) or whatever else it might be (but not something like fibromyalgia because the pain is so localized and focused). I asked for physical therapy, too, because, well, I always like PTs. He told me to quit trying to sit, even for a minute.
So, now, breathe in, breathe out. Nothing has changed, beyond the knowledge that injections don't help. I'm not worse off. We'll make a few adjustments and keep going . . . .
