Hi all, I have been gone for a while because I have been very discouraged.
I have extensive pain in my r neck and shoulder.. I have been told by one dr that my shoulder blade is prodruding... one dr seems to think that there may be a slight separation of the shoulder.
The pain is sometimes unbearable. I can no longer close or open a card door when I am sitting in the passenger side.. I cannot push heavy doors (ofices, stores etc) with my right side... and I do not have full range of motion ....
I am discouraged because the dr who did the surgery is ref me out to a shoulder specialist and I am afraid they are "covering" for the surgeon.. all the informatio they have is inconlusive... they have decided that it is not the main nerve... now it is like they are shutting me off and saying that nothing is really wrong that I need physical ther...
I work an hourly job and they are all willing to write excuses for "as much time off as I feel I need" ... they tell me that I have been prescribed pain meds... (who around here can actually work w/ Loratab in their system...
I am starting to gt bitter because the pain is bad.... the paychecks are low from missing work and no one seems to want to do any thing..
does anyone have any suggestions?
PS I went to a separate shoulder specialist an aditional one from the one recomended by the back surgeon reccomended just to see if I got a diff result.... I actully hear some "grinding" sometimes when i move my arm... has this happened to any of you?
