Q: my mother has a fractured pelvis and osteoporosis and arthritis in the hip area.

She's taking Vicadin but it's not helping - what do you recommend?  Shes also on a blood thinner, heart medication, and an antidepressant Zolof.  She's in severe pain everytime she does physical therapy.   The walking isn't the problem, it's the act of moving and standing up on her own.
