Physio no more

Physio has now told me no more pushing to the limit as it is not working. After 2 agonising weeks he has advised that whilst you need to move your arm there is no benefit in the very aggressive treatment he had me doing. He was quiet clear that if it had not improved after 2 weeks with physio then it would not and to switch to pain manangement. I have also been referred now to a shoulder specialist so let's see what the future is.

In general it is a lot tighter and the pain is not worse but is more constant and it really spikes with a lesser degree of movement, also finding sleep becoming more disturbed through involuntary movements in my sleep.

Good news is it's only a time based thing and I am seeing my 4th medical practicioner so let's see where we go.

    Hi Jon, I broke my shoulder in March and am having the same problem since therapy lost lots of range of motion and in bad pain.  I am going next Monday to a shoulder specialist also. Please let me know how you make out. good luck  alyce
