I dislike going to the doctor immensely, but yesterday just had to go. I have blown my rotator cuff and was experiencing excruciating pain in my shoulder whenever I tried to lift my right arm. The doctor gave me a shot of cortisone directly in the joint and told me if it didn’t alleviate the pain, I would need to see an orthopedic surgeon. I told him if that turned out to be the case, I would fight through the pain and forego seeing a surgeon for as long as I possibly could . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/01/it-aint-like-it-used-to-be/
