Working and not able to work with Frozen Shoulder

Posted , 9 users are following.

Are you working right now with your Frozen shoulder or are you at home? I currently had to quit my job taking care of the elderly as I can't hold or lift

     I only work part-time ATM a few hours in school  and I spray my arm/shoulder with a freeze spray during the time I'm there, but I have taken a few days off, due to the pain. I hope you'll be better soon!

    Thankfully, I work from home doing scheduling and bookeeping  for my husbands service business. However, the pain even keeps me from that many days. I am able to contribute some. I can't imagine having to work outside the home.  I had surgery 5 weeks ago and the lack of sleep leaves me fatigued constantly.

    Yes, I am working full time and it’s not easy. But no manul wor involved. Still it’s so hard. I work from home 2 days and when I am home I can manage my pain better. But at work its not easy. Unfortunately I can’t quite or take time off. I just hope and pray it gets better soon.

    I just found this site at 3:15 am, I started having pain 6 months ago. Brushed it off as sleeping wrong etc, did not go away, told it was torn tendon, went to psysio which did not help. Finally a specialist said Frozen Shoulder. Just recently reluctantly and with much guilt had to take short term disability. I had cortisone shot 5 days ago. HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SLEEP SINCE. I thought i was losing my mind! until i found this discussion, it hurts like hell, people have no idea what it is, it is the stupidest name for a legitimate decease ever. I am 51 years old and wonder what the hell happened to me. Any advice, thoughts or sharing please reply!

      So you have had frozen shoulder for 6 months now? I’m so sorry 

      It’s the most painful thing ever.

      If you keep on reading...other people’s posts, you may see something about a guy visiting a doctor and after 1 treatment he was cured..?

      If I find it I’m going to forward it to you!!

      I haven’t found any help or relief. My situation has gotten worst. I see someone replied to you with a possible cure. If she sends something to you please share with me.
