Guest guest Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Big hugs, ))))))))))))))))))))))) You've got a lot to sort out, but I hope that gradually all the bits that are falling apart will be mended again! Lin Thanks Alisa, and every-one. Okay I will ring the surgeon this morning, he will ask me to go back up there, but at least he will be able to reassure me one way or the other.,My referral to him is still current.so thats not the issue the issue is 1. Denial I don't want what happened to me last time to happen again. 2 I don't want to waste his time and look like a right dim wit.if its nothing.I can get to see him easily thats not the problem. he is great. its the darn GP. Jeff I can lift my arm, but I could lift it before with NO pain now I get to a point when it goes up and I have to push past that pain to keep going, the pain then goes and on the way back down it does the same thing.I some times have pain at rest I haven't had pain at rest since one month post surgery but its not horrible just annoying. I am sure I don't have a full tear as before I couldn't do anything with the other arm this is only partial if at all. I have got so much going on at the moment I think the GP is fed up with me, and I never normally have anything wrong. I have been called up for a mommogram, my colonsocopy is due in a few months, I had my eyes re-tested as my reading glasses are useless, I thought just change them and be on my way... and when he photographed the back of my eye there is a white patch on both optic nerves. so all in all I am falling apart.and feeling sorry for myself which I don't normally do either., Jeff I am so so sorry that you are facing naother surgery on your shoulder, I think we need to get together for a coffee. any way thanks every-one I am going to change GP's I need some one who is willing to keep up with me and give me the tests if I need them. I just thought I could have an ultrasound done, then if it was ok then I just go about my normal thing and do PT. if its not then I have the tests already done to take to the surgeon. I don't know if I should be doing PT or not.sorry this is an epic saga will let you know after I chat with the surgeon.. xx ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Hi , That's why I asked about raising the arm. If you can then it's likely not a tear, maybe a sprain. You might want to think about a new gp. How does he get " fed up " with you? I'm really trying to avoid the surgery and just get by the way it is. I have an app't next week with doc who put in my spinal stimulator and he's going to see if he can inject me with something to help.
