Laura, I'm so sorry to hear that Amy is not doing well. I also wanted to tell you that as a person who gets cortizone shots in my hip, knees and feet after I get the shots I feel so stiff and very, very sore and I kind of wonder if Amy feels the same way. It takes me a good 2 days to get back to normal and they make a world of difference for me...I hope this is the case for Amy as well.
