Hey Lynne, First welcome to the forum. In 1976 I seperated my shoulder in basic training and completed training without treatment nor time to heal. Over the years it kept giving me trouble which included pain from shoulder to finger tips and the drops.

In 2008 had shoulder surgery to remove a bone spur and repair the cuff due to the spur got into the cuff and was cutting it every time I moved my arm. To this day I still have pain and the drops, but could be due to PN dx 2002 and present since 1976.

Don't give up your quest and someone who that might be able to relate to you their experience that will ring a bell with you, If nothing else we are great listeners, & good caring supporters.

Good luck
and God Bless!
