Hi, I was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia, had surgery to remove lesions had hardware put in, had a lot of pain so hardware was removed. Still in a lot of pain. Had a bone scan done, which says a mild uptake. My pain however does not feel mild. Should I get a second opinion? Have not been able to work due to the horrible pain. Please advise. Thank you.
