As you know from my previous post, its been a little over 3 months since I came down with frozen shoulder. This morning I got up and could move it about 5 inches higher with no pain!
Praise the Lord!

Sue, how exciting I didn't know that was possible to happen overnight like that! I have not seen you other posts! What treatments have you been using and what caused your frozen shoulder??

Well, aside from praying- I recently had a cortisone shot, started doing PT and I use alot of ice on my shoulder.
My frozen shoulder, I believe was over exercising my arms and shoulder- then the "reaction" to that was the forming of the capsule.
As a side note- my Orthopedic Surgeons office gave this tip- never "hang" from a bar to do your exercises. In my case, I was using a Total Gym, doing way too many reps 2 times a day, won't be over doing that again..lol

Wow, this strange! I too found that I could raise my arm further this morning. Only a little - up to 90degrees in front instead of about 80degrees, but it's a start. Must be the weather! UK is having a warm spell at the moment.

Just to add Sue, that I think the title of your post is incorrect... Hopefully you are 'thawing', not 'unthawing'! Hope it continues!

lol- I must have been still asleep!
Yes, I should have typed "thawing", thank you for catching that Richard!

I had cortizone last night and now I'm in agony? Did everyone else get that from cortizone? Are they recommending release and mua to you Belinda? Or just a shot? How many months are you at?

No idea Alison just said injection that will ease the pain. Thought the cortizone was supposed to do that you like me it made it worse

They never told me not to apply heat so I applied heat as I have been doing for months for my frozen shoulder then later read on internet never use heat after a cortizone shot? Hopefully I didn't screw it up
