| DK. It is pleasing to hear that there are still Doctors who place patient first and not money. We are fortunate to have a family doctor who is a general practitioner. He will refer patients to a specialist when he feels the problem is beyond his capabilities. No one is refused treatment. He still makes house calls for those who cannot come to his office. It is rare, however proof that some doctor's take their Hippocratic Oath seriously. |

| 3/6/2013 Just got back from the Dr., Dr. Forno is really a great Dr. He showed me the MRI, I have a few bone spurs in the collar bone area, he said don't worry about that. I do have " Adhesive Capsulitis,(" I don't need "SURGERY!) I don't need Corticosteroid shots, I do have to have Physical Therapy twice a week for six weeks then I see him again, I told him I love him for those magic words " YOU DON'T NEED SURGERY !" Cheers..Joe... |

| Hooray for physical therapy. Get a parafin hand soak while you are there. Feels very nice. Ask for it... |

| Joe,
I've not logged in for weeks as work has me dazed this semester and just now read the thread. Perfect timing to be worried and relieved within a few minutes. I'm glad no surgery is needed. Excellent news. |

| Thanks Alice and Annie,
I hate ducking out for weeks at a time but it is just a matter of necessity. I'm really tapped out with work and behind on my research agenda as a result. I love this forum and miss reading your posts regularly, but I just have very little time this semester. I hope things ease up a bit when it ends. *SIGH* |

| Joe, had my MRI (MRT) on thursday and the doc says I will require surgery. I will wait until my own doctor sees the report before making any decision. It bothers me that Spring (assuming it will eventually come) means gardening. I can't work in my garden soon after surgery. Will just have to wait and see what develops. |

| Abe, I am so sorry. Hope and pray all goes well and your recover quickly. My boss underwent a very successful shoulder surgery at 70. You are not too far past that. Best wishes. |

| I hate the idea of any surgery for you, Abe. However, a woman at my church just had a second shoulder cuff surgery at 93 and she was at an orchid meeting I attended last night...moving just fine and in good spirits.
We'll all think positive. |
