Now on my second in my left shoulder and hoping to get surgery soon to sort it out again...........My biggest fear is that my right shoulder is now giving me some jip - pain soreness etc but no loss of movement......please someone tell me its not going to turn into the dreaded frozen shoulder again!!!!!

Hi
I feel for you. My left shoulder started may it's now firmly stuck even after 3 injections. Advised options are physi/ manipulation it surgery but is doesn't sound like I have a choice it's the consultants decision or program decision?
I unfortunately started with pain in both shoulders but my left one was worse unfortunately my right one is also starting frozen stage and I was told this can happen also 50%chance return. So sorry and really hoping for you as we are all different a slight trauma of my wrist is to blame for left one but apparently bursitis can cause it also. May I ask what treatment you had please

My first fs on my right I had MUA/arthroscopy/SAD and the surgeon cleared the rest of the adhesions out.........that was last year (started july 2014 though) didn't get treatment until feb 2014......This second fs started march/april this year Have seen surgeon who requsted further xrays and ultrasound & he has said he will operate again. So my biggest worry is that it is about to refreeze in my right shoulder as I'm getting that awful tell tale sign of pain I will be asking the surgeon to have a look at it again when I next see him........I just wanted someone to tell me No you can't get it again in the same shoulder
I can't even begin to think what it is like to suffer two at the same time.....its just such a debilitating disabling depressive extremely painful misunderstood condition
I wish you a rapid healing period
Oh mine has no known cause and I'm not a diabetic or have thyroid problems - just extremely unlucky

Oh Linda
You've been through chick. As I said my left one is totally frozen, started April but now my right ones starting. It's agony . I'm waiting to see what surgeon suggests. Really feel your pain and it's so debilitating , can't dress myself or dry myself and my hair!!! Grrr I have naturally curly hair so I currently look like I've had my hand in an electric socket!!!
Take care. Thinking of you. Very gentle hugs

there is more info online. I hope Xiaflex is available to you. Ask a specialist about it. Or go online for a referal,to see air in your area from the manufacturer. I highly recommend it. It takes a few days to work after the injection, in my case I waited 2 weeks, then you go back in to see the dr and he manunipulates the shoulder to move since the tissues has been
eliminated by Xiaflex.
No no surgery as in my case surgery was a risk and could have caused it to get worse.

Really???? I don't think they offer this in the UK but I will ask my surgeon about it when I next see him...........
I know some people are very very brave and sit it out until fs thaws on its own but I'm getting so depressed with this awful condition that for me I have to have surgery! My life has stopped in its tracks!! I can't drive as a can't change gear now - so I've become a bit of a recluse just like last time! So for my own sanity I will be getting surgery and it can't come quick enough!!!!! It teriffies me to think you could still get it twice in one shoulder! once in both is bad enough!!!!! Why is there not much research into this vile complaint I'll never know!!!!!

I've had it twice (once in each shoulder), and let time heal them both. No injections, no surgery, as I didn't want to force any issue. So far I feel like I've built up some kind of immunity and thus can't get it again. I hope that is true for both of us! Best of luck, Mike.
