long story short....4 cervical fusions with hardware at one of them....then dislocated shoulder (right) 1 1/2 yr ago....mri showed torn rotator cuff...doc went in and nope nothing but arthritis and bone spurs....

still had pain off and on but the past 2 months I have NOT been able to leave my recliner.....I have to have pressure on that shoulder blade....pain doc gave me steriod pack and it seemed to help for a day or so....then did an injection no help....my family doc thought it was once again a torn rotator cuff but went to my ortho doc and he said no it's from my neck but he doesn't think there is anything anyone can do....

I also have tingling in my right arm and last 2 fingers....

I am trying to have another mri done it's been over a year then off to find a neuro to help me...mine has retired...

anyway...any idea on what it can be?...I am in so much pain...I take 30 mg mscontin am and pm and then 10/324 norco 4x a day and it doesn't even last 2 hours right now...even then I still can't get up and not have pressure on the shoulder blade.....

I don't really know what I'm asking but anything anyone can tell me I would appreciate it...

is there anymore they can do with all my fusions?....my son (pharmacist) wants me off of the norco and to up the mscontin and switch between er and ir...

thanks for listening at least..debi
