Hello

Just got back from seeing my consultant and i have to have surgery on my shoulder. i have a tear and this is the last resort, Have had physio and injections already and no joy from them.

refused another injection today as the way i see it if it did not work in January this year i dont see how it will work 3 months later, Have had a lot of injections over the last year and not one has worked, consultant was good about it though

Hopefully wont have too long to wait, just want a bit of life back

have a good day

Lily x

    Hello Lily
    I dont think we have met so welcome from me
    I have in the last few months started with a painful shoulder...like you I have had many injections in other places....the one that did work was in my thumb...I still cant believe the pain just went...I do wish you well with the surgery and will be very interested to see how it goes.
    I bet you cant wait to rid of that pain....hopefully it will be very soon xx
    Love
    Barbara

    Oh Lily

    Like you jabs rarely seem to help me except the depot ones.

    I do hope you don't have too long to wait for your operation and that it is a great success.
