hi everyone, just thought I would update you. Went to see rheumy today and he says it isn't arthritis but a torn muscle. Painful whatever it is. He seemed to be concerned about peptic ulcers but it definitely isn't one of those.

    Hi Salamander

    Do you know how you did it? How long will it take to clear up?

    Thanks Lynn and Marion. I think I did it swimming, believe it or not. Did lots of backstroke which I don't normally do to try and help my shoulders a bit. My rheumy looked incredulous and muttered something about steroids. :lol: I am relieved though.
