I have seen several doctors and I am going
from disapointment to disapointement. No
doctor seems to identify what I have.
I am 62, retired, male.
The best way to describe my problem is as
follows: if I was a woman, I would not be
able to fasten my brassiere in my back.
Muscle pain in my right shoulder that goes
down to the elbow, prevents me to move my
arm high enough.
Sometimes, when I use my arm to stand up
from an easy chair or a sofa, I have a
paralysing pain. Also, in bed, I am
awakened by pain when I roll on my right
side.
I have seen a bone doctor. He told me I
had a pinched nerf in my neck and
recommended tractions. No improvements.
I went to see a neurologiste for a second
opinion, he said that my neck was ok, a
pinched nerf would be much more painful.
A friend of a friend told me he had the
same type of problems and what diagnosed
with pott's desease.
According to the internet, pott's desease
affects the lower back and I found no
mention of shoulder and arm pain.
Any suggestions?
