DeepSummary
Michael and Eli visit Dr. Tom Byrd, a renowned hip doctor in Nashville, to seek help for Eli's ongoing hip and back issues. Dr. Byrd examines Eli and determines that his hip joint is a factor in his pain, but surgery is not immediately necessary. He suggests adjusting Eli's physical therapy routine and reevaluating in a month.
Eli shares that the trip to Nashville and the appointment with Dr. Byrd have given him hope, and that he is experiencing his best consecutive days in 10 weeks. However, sitting at his work chair still triggers hip pain. Michael and Eli discuss taking a break from the podcast for a few weeks until Eli's condition becomes clearer.
Michael and Eli reflect on their experience in Nashville, share humorous anecdotes, and express their determination to continue their pursuit of improving their golf games, regardless of the outcome of Eli's recovery.
