3 days after cortisone. Things are looking promising!

So I had a cortisone in my ischial bursa ladt Tues and since then it's improved out of sight! Wednesday we traveled almost 8hrs to Griffith and I was relatively pain free in the car.
Once we arrived I ran 7km with discomfort after the first 2km but more on the medial hamstrings.
Thursday was xmas day and I got 21.4km done. Slow but steady and the leg felt great. It was an average of 5:39 pace but a lot of that was climbing rocks.
Today was boxing day and my leg felt amazing when I got up. I ran 10.5km with an average pace of 4:59. My first km was 4:35.  Had some discomfort on the medial hamstrings again but overall it was pretty good

FFS.......Day 34!

Just get better damn you!
Getting a little frustrated now. The last prp hasn't seemed to have much effect and I'm now feeling rather pissed off to be quite honest. One thing yesterday morning I got through a spin class no problem and it wasn't any worse after. On Sat I went to Trotters and ran but that wasn't pretty. In fact the leg was just sore and miserable and was achy for the rest of the day. 10km at 6:16km pace and that's too much? Bloody hell. Before I decided to stop running all wasn't too bad. I couldn't do speed work but at least I could run. Now after having a bit of time off its so bad it hurts to plod. You try to do all the right things to get back on track and its like it slaps you in the face.
Anyway Jamie did mention it could be an ischial bursitis so today I traveled down to Sydney to get an ultrasound which showed thickening of the hamstring tendon. They said it's hard to see if there's an inflamed bursa but tomorrow I travel back to Sydney again for a cortisone shot under ultrasound.
Let's see what happens tomorrow

Day 29

Yesterday I got a 3rd prp injection but this time in my sacrotuberous ligament. Now that one HURT!
I'm not sure if it's getting better. Some days it doesn't feel too bad and other days I feel more pain in the hamstring other days its more glute or an ache in the pubic area.
I must afmit though since the injection yesterday it much less painful getting out of the car after driving.
Still painful if I have to put my leg in a stretch position such as bending down to do up my shoes etc.
I did get a massage of Brad today. 45min just focusing on my left hamstring, glute and low back
Also did a little 2km jog this morning and it was ok but still painful in a stretch position

The other thing I was told it might be is in imflammed bursa

Let's see how things are tomorrow

Day 22

Wednesday 10/12/14 - Can feel a bit of an improvement today. Still hurts to sit and drive and also stretching but feels slightly better

Day 21

Day 21 Tuesday 09/12/14 - 3 weeks since the first injection and 1 week since the second.
spent the last 4 days crewing for Greg Brown at C2K. Hamstring survived the trip and I also did some slow run/walking about 60km in total. It was ok once it warmed up.
Today however it was frustratingly achy. Had a crap massage.
Just annoying today

Day 16

Thursday 04/12/14 - So 16 days now since first injection and 2 days since the second. Today was just sitting in a car traveling 8 or 9 hrs from The Central Coast to Eden. Leg was ok sitting but had the usual soreness getting out of the car. Once we made it to Eden I went for a swim and not long later it came it came pretty good.
Ive strapped it up tonight

Day 15

Wednesday 03/12/14 - Day 15 since the first prp injection. No training. My hamstring felt pretty darn good all day. Driving from Newcastle to Central Coast flared it but came good again soon. Still hurts to stretch. Tomorrow will be a day in the car as a passenger heading down to Eden

Day 14 and 2nd prp injection

Tuesday 2nd December and 14 days since my first prp injection I had the second one today. This time Jamie injected the plasma in 3 areas in my hamstring. One was the same as last time another more on the bicep femoris tendon and the 3rd was more muscle/tendon junction of the medial hamstrings. The bicep femoris injection really felt like he got it in the spot and the muscle/tendon was also right where I've been getting pain. 

One of the annoying things with high hamstring pain is it can be hard ro work out where it's all coming from. 

After the injection I had an ache for pretty much the rest of the day which is different than the first injection where I felt fine. I ended up putting a compression bandage around the tendon and the helped a lot. After about 4 hrs with the bandage on it started to get achy again so I took it off and now my hamstring is feeling really really really good! 

I'm not getting too excited just yet but this is the best it's felt in a long time

Day 13

Monday 1st December - No training just on my feet working all day. Leg was annoying all day. I can feel it mostly when I lift my knee such as walking up steps and still sore when sitting.
So it's been 13 days since my first injection and I don't know if it's working. I'm hoping the pain I've had is the inflammation from the prp injection.
I get the second injection tomorrow morning

Day 12

Sunday 30th November - day 12 since the injection. No training just went to the Central coast half to take photos. Hamstring and glute were both quite achy when I got up and was pretty much like that all day. I was sitting for most of the day and that's what seems to make it worse
