10 months ago, I got stuck on the side of my bathtub. I woke up horrible nauseated and I sat on the side of my tub to dry heave until it was extremely painful. I couldn't get up after. The pain in my shoulder was too bad. I went to the er and they said I had a kidney infection. -_- nothing about the whole reason I went in. It's been hurting non stop since. My orthopedic gives me somas and ultracets but it's not enough. I don't have full use of my arm. I can't extend it fully. I can't hold more than 3lbs (I did the math) and it's my dominate hand too. So trying to use my right hand for everything is really hard. My ortho just gave me what he did and said there was no reason for a follow up appointment. I went to my pcp and he said it was just a sprain. What kind of sprain lasts 10 months and counting? I've been trying to wait to see if it will stop but if anything, it's getting worse. Here lately, if I lay slightly flat in a weird way, I can feel something sliding in my shoulder. It makes me break out in goosebumps, makes my stomach turn and gives me the chills because it's such a strange feeling that I can't even explain it. I can't lay on that side. I'm so tired of this pain.
OMG trust your body in 2009 I went to Dr saying my shoulder is really hurting something's wrong long story short fast forward to april 2013 before I finally talked Dr into going in to have a loom because MRI showed no tear. Tear found impengment found bone shave from slop as well. Now I have severe tendinopathy from the long wait and also physical therapy given when they thought it was nothing damaged nerves. Insist they listen. Make a stink about it. Good luck.
Well read above this I wrote in wrong area so they are making me type here. Just look above this.
Does anyone have any ideas? It's my left shoulder blade on my back.
I forgot to say five Doctors later it wasn't the first doctor I talked into looking I had surgery a year before and that quack didn't check for the tear just clean up bursa sac some doctors only read what's on paper. Doctor number five was nice enough to look and fix the botched surgery.
