My painful frozen shoulder

Hello

This is the first post on my new blog. My grand daughter Jess told me I should do this - I've never been a "blogger" before.

My name is Katherine S Jones but everyone just calls me Kathy. I'm sixty six years old and my health has always been good .... good until two months ago at least when I developed a pain in my left shoulder. Frozen shoulder as it turns out to be.

I don't recall a shoulder injury except maybe a tiny tweak. The pain just seemed to start out of nowhere.

My shoulder pain got worse and worse for about two weeks. I went to see my local family doctor who said he thought it was just a muscle injury - but when things did not get better I saw a specialist shoulder doctor who told me that I had a frozen shoulder - or adhesive capsulitis as he called it.

He told me that all I could do was take painkillers ( which I hate to do - always have ) and maybe get some physical therapy.

So much for experts !

Any ways - I'll be back with more details shortly - just want to see how this first attempt will turn out.

Kathy
