Taken to hospital and received an x-Ray , I was than told it's not broken , here's some paracetamol , you can go home? , my own doctor wants me to come and see him May 1st for a follow up , my arm is now much worst . What if anything can I have done apart from tablets that don't work ...

definitely a second opinion, a referral to a orhapaedic specialist, that's a basic! If you have no success you can change GP, that's always an option. Why suffer in silence it's only you that has to tolerate the agonising pain...we sufferers on this forum, can vouch for that!....best of luc& please keep us posted on!

It has stopped me doing everything i enjoy, my work driving. It is so depressing and of course the lack of sleep. i got severe constipation due to the pain killers, so have had to cut those down by half. i am so angry about this and don't think i shoudl pay for a proper diagnosis. I also ha e M.E. which is 10 times worse than it was before this, nobody, just nobody understands how hard it is.
Best of luck.
