    Awww thats such good news Jim smile Did you get an orthopaedic refferal aswell ?

    My pain has eased to what it was - it just feels like a great pressure pushing down on my shoulder with occassional electric shock pains running down my arm the arthroscopy site is still quite sore and I do sometimes get a nasty stbbing like pain there sad  BUT it isn't anywhere near as bad as it was! Sleeping like yourself now is also a bit better - I still wake when I turn over because my arm feels sooooo very heavy but on the whole the pain has improved smile 

    Would you say you are still at the freezing stage then???

    I'm so depressed by this condition.............sigh lol

      hi linda i havent had a referal yet , the doc wants to see how i get on with the new pills , not sure what stage its at to be honest , the pills dont cure it , it still hurts like hell if i jolt or over reach with the arm . you sound like your on the road to recovery at least , it just seems to take so long thats the trouble

      So glad you have benifitted from Tramadol smile it doesn't suit everyone and as you say it can cause you to feel 'strange' lol........It makes me sick sad

      But if you are one of the lucky ones its a fantastic pain killer smile

      Its a shame he didn't reffer you though............an orthopaedic surgeon can give you choices & they are expert in their fields smile push for it if you don't get on with Tramadol...........

      Not really getting there - pain better but still frozen -  should be much more improved after manipulation on monday next smile As you say it takes sooooo long!!! Everytime I turned over in bed last night I got a loud cracking/crunching sound which was also painful - bit scared I've done something sad  God I hate this condition sad

      Well huni give the Tramadol a couple of days & if still feel weird go back to your GP dont sit on it or leave it to long - as Kerri says you don't have to put up with pain in this day and age!!! Love and gentle hugs xx

      I havnt had Tramadol with my shoulder, but if they make you feel weird or don't agree with you tell your doctor because there are lots of equals on the market. What's good for one may not be good for another. Don't put up with feeling weird if it bothers you luvvy. But I'm soooooo happy your getting some sleep though 😀❌❌
