Frozen shoulder
Posted , 9 users are following.
I have had this frozen shoulder for nearly 2 yrs and i have not experienced pain like it , it has affected my everydaylife, from combing my hair to putting on my clothes, to driving my car , it makes me so miserable, i have doctors today for a steriod injection i am hoping and praying that it gives me some comfort . Sleeping is a massive problem waking in pain several times a night, it has made me feel a little better to know that I am not the only person with this complaint, so sorry for everyone who is suffering from this. I will let you all know how this injection works for me fingers crossed.

oh gawd i know exactly what your going through, i first went to see the gp about this painful condition jan 2013, had steroid injection which after 3/4 days worked a treat BLISS!!!! but 6/7 weeks later pain came back, back to gp who refered me to hospital, so another wait for appointment, in mean time was on cocodamol 30/500, and amatrylptaline (which doesnt agree with me), the pain meds just dont work, ive been up at nights sat on edge of bed sobbing through the pain wanting to saw my arm off, eventually hosp app came through for x rays /scans, they showed def calcification tenenitis and arthritis, so back to gp make another appointment for hospital! waited til sept 2014 for the first doctor who refered me for physio and of course it wouldnt work i got calcification,,, so physio said i need surgery,,, and yeah back to gp to make another hosp appointment to see ortho doc that was nov 2014, and im still waiting!!!!!!! the gp has given me 4 injections over the time its the only thing that works for the pain, but its 6 weeks since the last injection and i can feel the pain creeping back ,,, its making my life unbearable, and the wait of over 2 years to sort it is unbelievable... i hope your injection gives you some relief, it does me for approx 6 weeks, good luck, xx
