Apologies for the length of this - I didn't want to drip feed, and would really appreciate any thoughts.
I've already got a thread related to this (the kinesiology tape one), but I'm worrying about this....
I used shears at the weekend and had to hammer a ground spike (for a whirly line) in. There was no pain at the time, but my shoulder got increasingly sore OK agonising and I haven't been able to raise my arm above my head or put it behind my back since then.
I've seen a dr today (they insisted, I only called for advice), and he said very little except that it wasn't the joint, to keep it gently moving and that now that the pain is under control, to leave it and wait until I see a rheumatologist (already referred before this happened).
This has happened before to a lesser extent in the past, but this is the worst I've ever been affected. I'm seeing the rheumatologist because I have other symptoms which has made my gp think I don't have straightforward arthritis as previously thought.
It's really frightening me that I can't do something as simple as trim a small plant with shears, or paint a wall without having severe pain and stiffness afterwards.
What could it be?

This isn't normal, is it? Any clue as to what it is (please)?
