Hi (and everyone)

Well, not really much better at all. Some days are ok, most are not. I also

have a shoulder injury (from that car accident and the docs won't do

ANYTHING to help. The only thing they did was to give me cortisone

injections in the shoulder.otherwise they say to just move on. I should send

the letter I sent to my doc and the OS that saw me for my shoulder. I never

got an answer from the OS, but my doc called and wanted me to come back in

to talk. It didn't do much good. He said to get a 2nd opinion. Problem

is.the ONLY neck/spine specialist in my area will NOT take car accident

cases. He gets plenty of business without seeing car accidents so just won't

take them. So, not really sure what to do. I think my neck is manageable IF

I can get someone to fix the shoulder injury. My PT has tried and tried but

PT makes it either worse or doesn't help at all (no change or improvement at

all). I've had an MRI. Radiologist says I have a torn labrum.OS doesn't

agree.says it's from birth (born with it) but how can that be if I've never

had shoulder problems before? My low back pain comes and goes.right now it

has come! While we were on vacation last week, I got some tingling in my

butt for the first time.hopefully its not getting worse. So, I need to call

my PT and figure out what to do. I'm pretty frustrated with nobody to talk

to at home. Hubby seems tired of me complaining about pain/hurting etc so I

just don't say much anymore.

Frustrated and hurting,

Joi
