Two Arrows,

Definitely go see a sports orthopedist. They specialize in the sort of problem you are having. Don't waste time like I did. It may be something very simple to resolve, or it may be something that you don't want to let go too long too.

Good luck and make that call.

You've gotten excellent advice. Go to a different Doc!!!

They're just people like us and some are better, some have kinda give up on learning new tricks for patients, too...

I had one tell me there was nothing to do for my shoulder...I fired his behind! Learned 8 mos later it was a torn rotator, spurs, shredded tendon...but that doc said to "live with it."

Docs are just people. Keep looking. kinda like dating...gotta sift and sort some to find the kernel from t he chaff!  :)
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!

Keep your faith and get another Doctor to look at you, I can back from a stroke 2 years ago by startng with a 33# bow and working my way up to a 45# bow that I now use for hunting.  Good Luck and Our Lord with guide and direct you.

You may want to look into Prolo Therapy, in your area, Google it, research it, very amazing treatments and I am sure they can maybe get you back, all you have to do is talk to them and see what you think, but don't give up brother.
