Hello everyone....last year I was in the company of my fellow hippies because of my right hip replacement....now I’m here on the shoulder forum. I have bone on bone in both shoulders. In December last year I asked my doctor if I could be referred to have xrays on both shoulders.....he said “No!” He didn’t even look at me or examine me. He said I must go for physio instead...I told him I had already had months of physio and nothing helped with the pain even though I carried on my excercise at home. I had to go to a private doctor and immediately refered me for xrays on both shoulders which showed up one on bone.He gave me time to think it over whether to have surgery, and now I have decided to have surgery. I don’t look forward to more surgery,as I know I’ll need the other shoulder replaced some point after my right shoulder is replaced. I’m in agony. My operated hip still gives me discomfort too and my neck...I suppose the Osteporosis and Osteoarthritis does not help either nor my age as I’m 73 and have a history of arthritis.
Thanks for listening to me guys. x
