L shoulder froze some years ago. GP injected with steroids. told to go back if no improvement. went back after a week or so. GP injected steroids and said if it still does not improve your stuffed `cos I gave you as much as I can. seems there is a limit per year or something, can`t remember. it worked and improved back to my normal movement over some months
a few years later R shoulder froze, by which time I had been diagnosed as diabetic. Gp ended up referring me to the hospital
consultant walked into examination room and said to his minions that there is a classic case of frozen shoulder from the way I was sitting and holding my arm, anyway, sent for physio. worked after several months. consultant also said not to worry, you will soon be getting it in your other shoulder. Surprised when told it had been already. again recovery took some months
also for both took buckets of painkillers which rarely made much difference
I liken it to mega toothache at 7pm on a Friday night, it `aint going to get fixed for a while
Good news is, the medics all said that you only get it once (in each shoulder) and they were right, nothing for 20 ish years now
be interesting how the saline and stuff solution works out
