This started months and months ago I would have to say at-least 8 months ago . It started with discomfort during certain movements like reaching in the cabinets or putting my hair in a pony tail, then it progressed to not being able to reach over my head to take my shirt off , not being able to move my arm behind me to put my jacket on or off, I went to Primary Care Doctor, she did a X-Ray of my neck to rule out arthritis in my neck, went back to her weeks later and she though it was a Rotor cuff tear, the pain during certain movements got worst not being able to stretch my arm into refrigerator to get something and then pain just sitting there, I was referred to a Orthopedic he said I had tendinitis and pretty much that was it he told me I needed a cortisone shot after a couple of months of pain that now affected my sleep I decided I would try it. the relief lasted a few weeks then back to pain ,,,back to not sleeping moaning and screaming in pain all night, waking up at 3 am ,so I called him and went in to see him this was I would say 2 months ago and he said I needed a MRI, Boy, that was scary talk about laying still in a tube with the nosiest sound.weeks later I had to go back to have the MrI read. This Dr is just cold and rude, doesnt smile, doesnt explain things, doesnt talk he said you have Frozen Shoulder

Love Sundays...Yesterday at the supermarket I bought 3 separate pieces of petite sirloin NY shell I wanted to cook them outside on the grill it was such a beautiful day but my s/o wasn't feeling well,so I broke out my cast iron Cooks grill wow this thing first of all is so heavy I needed help to lift it to the stove, i butterflied my steak and I have to tell you it was the best I have had here are some pictures Again, it was so good will definitely use this again in fact today after i cleaned it up and oiled it up I didn't put it back to were I had it prior now its accessible to use again.Now for today my Tendinitis has really been killing me again but seems like it has got worst so I am taking it easy today the pain is so bad its in the lateral aspect of my upper arm and swollen I can move my arm to certain positions with out pain I will be getting this looked at again they wanted to give me a cortisone shot but I refused I have had those in past for my Trigger Thumb and they are no fun.Im thinking of making a Kentucky Butter Cake for Sunday Dessert, I'm not sure tho because of my arm. But, its Sunday Football and s/o and teenager are making Buffalo Chicken today so I think I will take advantage of there cooking and stay in bed, read the paper, do some meal planning and catch up on little things,

I hope I am given a calm me down pill however I have my own so I will take one a hour before I leave which is at 230pm. And to top it off we will be driving to hospital in sever damaging weather with possible tornadoes just wonderful, well the procedure is as follows a injection under the thumb to numb it then they cut the tendon so I can bend my thumb http://www.assh.org/handcare/hand-arm-conditions/trigger-finger thw whole thing should take 30 min I just hope I am given Percocett, my s/o and teenager will be with me, and s/o is making dinner tonight wish me luck
