Guest guest Posted March 20, 2002 Report Share Posted March 20, 2002 Hello everyone, hope all is well. Some of you may know that I've been having lots of shoulder pain. I had my x-rays done and saw my MD. the xray result is as follows: large subacromial enthesophyte; query impingement syndrome. small enostosis withing the left humeral surgical neck. My doctor explained that this is simple a bony growth, but is not sure how it may have happened, perhaps trauma or repetitive movements. He referred me to see a rheumy. My usual rheumy has a long wait, only have an appt in July, then my MD suggested another rheumy which I have an appt in May. the alternatives my MD suggested that may help is a combination of physiotherapy and cortisone injections. have any of you ever had this kind of problem? I checked the internet, but couldn't find much re: shoulder pain, etc. Do you think cortisone injections is advisable, considering RP? I'm not flaring right now (thank God). Could RP have caused this? any input is greatly appreciated. love always Carmela xoxoxoxo _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
