Sounds like you need electrodiagnostic workup with your neurologist...maybe also neurosurgical/orthosurgical eval and possibly consider subsequent selective nerve root block to delineate your shoulder weakness. There are other options too. That is not to say you need surgery...ALL aspects need to be considered before you go there! Depending upon your age and life experiences, etc., rotator cuff or intrinsic shoulder pathology may also be contributory as well. While I don't think chiropractic treatment is a problem necessarily solely based off of your posts and what you have written from your MRI findings, it may not be the exclusive solution for you. Activator method is pretty benign. You should discuss with your chiro. Sooo...much needs to be considered clinically and diagnostically that is not available for you to mention here or even possible for you to understand and translate so I really think you need to follow up your care with those professionals that you trust! Most here are not clinically trained...so need I say more? Good luck to you!
