Good news, I am not dying! My hips have been killing me lately. Just walking along and then bam! Intense sharp pain for 3-4 steps before it lets up, then mysteriously stops again. Went to the MD, got some films taken - results are simply old and crusty joints. I took a break from walking/pickleball and the pain stopped too!
The recommendation is new shoes! hahahaha! What a simpleton I am sometimes. I am down just a hair over 22kg so the joint pain was odd as it should have improved with weight loss. Instead, I lost enough that I became overactive and injured. What the heck! A week off and I should be back to slapping a paddle.
