Hi, just wondered if any of you have had this procedure and what the results were. I (finally) saw a shoulder specialist on Friday after an ultrasound. He examined me as well as looking at the scans and said that it's frozen shoulder with possible bursitis being the cause. He recommended that I have a procedure with a local anaesthetic where high pressure saline is injected into the joint, followed by steroid injection(s) then it's vital to have physio within 48 hours. Apparently keyhole surgery is the next step if this doesn't work but I am reluctant to go down that road if it's avoidable. Has anyone had this saline thing? What was the outcome?
