I had a MRI today on my left shoulder. Doc suspects that I have a torn rotator cuff.. yay :rolleyes:

But that was the nastiest MRI I've ever had. They had to inject the contrast dye directly into the shoulder joint... (yes, this is where you say OW!!) :mad:

Now I have to hurry up and wait for the results..so a tad bit of Pixie Dust blown my way would be very welcome! :thumbsup:

Thanks!

I had to have this done AFTER my shoulder surgery - double ow! Ice is your friend as well as Ibufprofen.

Here is some :pixie: that you get some answers. PM me if you would like any shoulder surgery info. If you end up needing shoulder surgery there are some things that I learned to make thing a bit easier post-op. I had a SLAP repair for a torn labrum (2 screws + stitches), drained cyst, as well as acromioplasty (shaved some bone that was shearing my rotator cuff). Good luck!

Lisa - I feel the early need that I am going to need your wisdom down the road here, so thank you for putting it out there. I don't know anyone in a similar situation that could help me.

Just bring lots of popcicles and good Disney books...:mickey:

Well, the MRI didn't look good, so I am off to the Ortho surgeon in early March. Lisa, start stocking up on those popsicles, because I think I'll be needing them and your wisdom. :ill:

Thanks to all for the well wishes... stay tuned..
