I've had a shoulder impingement for about 7 months now.
So fed up, this week has been particularly bad at night and no position is comfortable. I have a toddler who keeps pushing into me (obviously not on purpose) and just general weight of carrying him means I can't rest the arm as much as I would like and it often gets 'impinged' again and aggravates it.
Had a few private physio sessions at the start of the year whilst I waited for my nhs appointment. Didn't really help.
Waited patiently for 4 months for NHS appointment to find out my GP surgery never bloody sent the referral off!!
Anyway finally saw nhs physio last week who gave me different exercises, he thinks the private physio gave me too much too soon.
But I'm just so fed up. Pain killers don't really do much, they take the edge off slightly but it never fully goes.
What's so annoying is this started when toddler turned one and started to sleep better. But I'm having very broken nights because of the pain. Last few nights have not only been worst pain but toddler also not sleeping well lately so double whammy.
Sorry just ranting! This mum is getting very little sleep
