    Have you spoken to your doctor since the X ray regarding treatment for tendinitis? Based on this diagnosis you physician should offer you some treatment alternatives  Previous to the rotatorcuff injury I had tendonitis  in my other shoulder and had a cortisone injection that calmed the tendonitis  down

      I believe the doctor hit a main nerve causing the paralysis! I have a neurological test tomorrow as well as an in depth EMG! This should be able to find out where the nerve is impinged! I believe this will resolve with surgery once they find the nerve! Praying for a miracle here🙌🏽🙏🏼🙌🏽

    My xray I had for my shoulder showed tendinitis and bursitis. As time went on, my pain got worse, and I went to the ER, and Dr. told me to ask my doctor to order a MRI, because he said it was my rotator cuff. After informing my doctor, she placed the oder, and it showed a small tear, and went to see an Orthopedic which had me going to therapy. After a few weeks, the pain wasn't getting any better, nor my range of motion, and therapist requested I go back to the Orthopedic Dr. & ask him to look at my MRI a little more, because something wasn't right. After examining my arm, he realized that I needed surgery. I had surgery on Aug. 18th 2017, and during surgery, he saw that it was worse than what we thought! My rotator cuff and biceps had to be repaired.
