get an MRI... I tore a rotator cuff last summer and have been dealing with it. can lift a straight arm up to the front or to the side. No Insurance keeps me from getting the Op... TRying at present to get VA bennies to do it! never applied before so well see! I’m just wondering how long I can go before the non repaired is un repairable!

I ended up getting surgery. Bone spurs tore the cartilage and tendons in my shoulder. They had to shave down one of the bones quite a bit. I went through lots of physical therapy afterwards. That was almost 2 years ago and I still don’t have the arm strength that I used to. Don’t know if I ever will. I hope that you can find relief for your pain soon. I know what it feels like living with it every day.
