Had a sonogram - even I could see the tear in my shoulder tendon, plus the buggered-up "bursa", thanks to my visits to Dr YouTube.
I've been to the physiotherapist (her office has a step, so no scooter); she did give me a good shoulder massage. A real doctor gave me a week's worth of OxyContin.
"Isn't this 'Hillbilly Heroin'?" I asked.
"Don't worry about getting addicted - you've only got enough for a week - no repeat script," he said.
Plus side, it absolutely works like a charm.
Down side, after that, Cortisone injections.
And the other shoulder, which is doing all the work, has gone out in sympathy.
