Hi all,
After a couple of tense weeks we have 2/3rds of the answers for my husbands pain. His colonoscopy was scary because he had numerous polyp, two of them being quite large, found out this afternoon that he is okay on that matter, now has to be checked every three years.
His pain in his shoulders elevated to where he couldn't lift either one and was barely walking, he spent the weekend in a recliner crying out constantly from the pain. Finally, I went online and googled hip and shoulder pain. Came up with a condition called polymyagia rheumatica, basically arthritis of the soft tissue. It stated if you better markedly better within 24 hours of starting prednisone then this is what you have, the doc gave it to him yesterday and guess what? He is as good as new, don't know how long he'll have to be on steroids, but this does go away.
Just waiting now for the urologist visit to check out his "asymetrical" prostate new week, hopefully threes a charm.
