ok so i got injured over a year ago at work. To state it clearly i was attacked by one of my patients. It has been over a year and my shoulder still hurts tremendously. I have limited range of motion and can barley hold my son for more than 5 min at a time. I did have x-rays the day of the injury and was actually released back to work. (the inital doctor i had was not very good). the pain ended up increasing and has gotten worse. i have now been out of work per my ortho;s orders for over a year now ( hes a good doctor) i didnt get an mri until 5 months after my inital injury and the tests came up as negative. but they never did any injections with the dyes to try to get a clearer reading and they never took an mri of my good shoulder for comparison. physical therapy has not helped and i have had emgs but those came up as negative as well. the doctors think there is something wrong but are unable to find a diagnosis. any thoughts or ideas?
