My orthopedist checked my shoulder and range of joint motion. It was ok. He only did a shoulder x-ray. No help as it is not my actual shoulder itself. As others have mentioned it is from my neck says the physical therapists. They think I am having radiating referred pain coming from my neck region. I did take a spill about 2 months ago on the concrete floor and I am not that young so it may have started then. I really need an MRI done of my cervical and thoracic spine. I did something totally stupid yesterday....I made the same mistake and tripped over my computer cord again but this time...I didn't go all the way down as I caught myself hanging on to something.....I am now back to the original pain.......Geez louise....I have to tell PT in the morning.
