Have you had an accurate diagnosis of the root cause? (If you've not had an MRI, I'm guessing maybe not?) I ask because I had acute groin pain which wasn't properly diagnosed all the way through physio investigation, then X-ray and MRI (both of which were through GP referral) until a referral to an orthopedist, who immediately diagnosed femeroacetabular impingement (FAI). I was then referred for keyhole surgery (or give up running for good... er, no!), all through the NHS. 3 month wait for a consultation, another 3 month wait for surgery, then 2/3 months rehab and back to running. Not saying your condition is the same or even related, but could you go back to the GP and get a specialist referral to an orthopedist?
