Okay, just got the written report for the MRI. I have not 1, but 2 labral tears in the same damn hip. Explains why the pain has been so bad all around the hip joint. I don't know if that will make the surgeon recommend hip replacement instead of repair, especially since repairs don't have good success rates in people with arthritis and autoimmune disease, but I'm definitely worried. November 10 cannot come soon enough... As always, if anyone had insight or advice, I'd be very grateful. Thanks.
