This is too Much

I think I am falling apart! As everyone knows I have a Migraine problem, but I also am having a problem with my right shoulder. I went for a MRI of my shoulder back when I injured it and was told it was tendinitis. That was back in February. Well yesterday I went out and used the leaf blower to do the yard. I ended up with a huge Migraine, but when I was the done I could barely use my right arm. I had pain even shooting down the bicep and hand was tingling and numb. Today it is still bad today. I called the Doctor and they said it might be a torn Rotator Cuff. I am going to the Orthopedists next as soon as I can get an appointment. Depending on the outcome, I may be down from airbrushing for a long time. That is if it is torn. I have been in pain since February, so I guess it is about time.

my wife suffers from tore R. Cuff and I can feel her shoulder joint pop or grate when she move the arm a certain way, you mention the right hand , I would learn to airbrush with the left hand and any other work to give the right hand a rest

Fred, you already know my thought's, hope's and prayers are with you brother.

Let us know how you go there mate, and maybe it's time to check in with the local Scouts or Community support to look after those nasty yard and garden chores that seam to always attack cause more harm than good.

Thanks everyone just sitting here to type with my typing even hurts. I don't want to wait like my knee ACL injury like years ago and end up with permanent damage that can't be repaired. The worst is I did this when we got a Wii system and tried to throw a fast ball. I knew as soon as it happened but I thought it was just a strained muscle. I did a shirt for Nederbrit and both night after I painted for several hours my shoulder was worse. I figure it time to stop putting it off. I keep everyone posted. I could just do a cortisone shot, but they say it will mess up my blood pressure.

Hang in there mate, and stay away from that Wii for now!
