So last Sept, after about 6mths of worsening shoulder/upper arm pain, I was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder.. had the physio exercises, and increasing pain relief (naproxen, dihydrocodeine..), and spoke to my GP again this week to ask about steroid injections.
He told me that a frozen shoulder was really the end result of something that has happened to my shoulder, ie an injury, or maybe a muscle/tendon tear..he has now referred me for a scan (an xray showed nothing of concern)..I have tried to compare symptoms on the internet for a frozen shoulder vs a rotator cuff tear, and there are similarities - just wondering if someone on mumsnet has suffered a rotator cuff tear, and how it was treated once finally diagnosed?
