I'm in my way to reading hospital to finally see a specialist about my shoulder problems. I'm expecting a 2 hour wait for them to say I need an MRI scan.

It's taken about 6 months to get this far, you don't want to see the amount of pain killers I've taken in that time!Cav wrote:The bright side is you can get an MRI referral.. I've been waiting months to get an appointment just for a referral where I'm going to have to wait another number of months..
I've been suffering with really bad pain in my shoulder, I've currently on zapain (30mg codein and 500mg paracetemol) 6 a day for the last 4 or 5 months now. Also got amitriptyline for when the pain is really bad, but it's horrible for side effects so I stay off it as much as I can.Cav wrote:If you're anything like me you've been maxed out continuously. What's your injury? Must have missed it in the thread.
Out of curiosity, are you on Naproxen? I've been maxed on that for 4 months and am wondering if the doctor will continue to prescribe it or not as it's one of the more damaging painkillers (NSAIDS) - wondered what your experience is with the doctor

The downside of shoulder injuries... it's possibly the most complex joint. The good thing with what is effectively a posture issue is that it shouldn't be too difficult to remedy, its just how fatiguing the pain is if you're anything like me - it's exhausting. Did she give any indication on possible treatment routes?D6Nutz wrote:Can't remember what they put me on before, but it was ibuprofen based and gave me real bad stomach pains.
Not sure what started it TBH, it started about a year ago when I started commuting. I think it may have been there for quite some time, just not painful enough to be noticeable.
The specialist today did say that it could be a complex issue involving not only the shoulder but also possibly the chest muscles as well. She though that my shoulder was being pulled down and forward, which would stretch all the shoulder muscles.
No, been referred to their specialist physio. Guess when I've seen them a plan will become apparent.Cav wrote:The downside of shoulder injuries... it's possibly the most complex joint.
