I don't know how I did it - but I did have a fall last year and fractured my left knee and tore the rotator cuff in my left shoulder. I have a feeling I did this at the same time, and it has only started being painful recently. I can't think of any other way I could have done it. But apparently it could also be caused by age related atrophy of the tendon. It's a b**ch getting old! But will see how the cortisone injections work. If I need to have the surgery, apparently it is arthroscopic surgery so it will be minimally invasive. |
Oh Sylvia that sounds so much better than surgery! I pray the injections do their work. It's weird how things happen, isn't it? You wouldn't think one thing has anything to do with the other. April 2009 I broke my hip...the very top of the femur before it goes into the socket just tripping off the ramp into my shed. Who would think such a thing could happen? But anyway, I am so happy you don't have to have surgery and you can still take care of little Beamer!! Dyan |
Beamer is gorgeous! I hope your shoulder heals quickly and that you are soon pain free. |
Beamer is gorgeous! Sylvia...maybe if you got Beamer a summer cut it would give your tendon time to rest and repair. Both of my kidz have summer cuts and they love it. Of course, like Beamer, they are in and out all day long and they can become quite a mess without it. |
Beamer is a beautiful boy! |

Now I try to use my left hand more. Still not as near good as the right. |
I found you can cheat on the long hair - my Rita was always too hot so I parted her hair half way from belly to back, banded the top part up and clipped the 1/2 down and tummy - she was way cooler and you couldn't even tell the hair was missing unless she rolled over to have you rub her tummy! Also makes it easier to comb in the AM as I work and she went to the baby-sitter. |

I have arranged for his groomer to come over once a week, but I still need to brush and comb him daily - he loves his brushing sessions, he actually reminded me last night that he hadn't had his evening session. But, if I miss any tangles I do know that his groomer will be here in the week, so I don't really have to spend the same amount of time. And I think even with a summer cut, he would still get sticker things in his coat from the back yard, so I would still brush and comb him daily. The cortisone injection helped yesterday - along with Lortab. |

the one thing I worried about the cortisone injection was that last year when I fractured my knee and tore the rotator cuff in my left arm, the surgeon gave me the cortisone injection in my knee. About a week later I had an appointment with my back pain management specialist, and he said he couldn't give me the usual injections then as I had recently had a cortisone injection and it was too soon!! I see him next week and I bet I will have to wait for my back injections because of having the cortisone shot yesterday. The surgeon's nurse said it shouldn't make a difference, but I remember last year having to wait on my back injections. (I get 6 in my lower back and a week later get 6 in my upper back) |
How cute is he!!! He is gorgeous you must be so so proud!! xxx |
