MaryE, could your shoulder pain be from a Rotator Cuff possibly or a torn Bicep muscle? DH had a C spine injury years ago and he finally had to have Rotator Cuff surgery. The doctor said the Bicep was barely hanging and he put a pin in it. One of our dogs lurched after a squirrel and pulled his arm and that is what caused the damage.

Mine hurt when I carry rainwater or do too much lifting in one day. I hope I don't have to have that RC surgery ever. Hope you feel better.

Thank you. It continues to get better, slowly, however two family members who are Family Nurse Practitioners have advised me to have it checked, so I will call tomorrow and find out when the walk in clinic is open and ask for x-rays as well as a hands on examination.
