Went to my PCP and asked him to help me figure it out. He never got my MRI from the hospital, so he's requesting that, and tomorrow I go for an X-ray, standing, with weights? After moving my joints around he was impressed by my flexibility (I know how that sounds, but he's really unattractive), so he's not sure what my issue is. Specially because it's intermittent.
