My Shoulder, My Shoulder


Well, this morning my right shoulder when out or whatever it does. 
I've never really had a Dr. see it because it usually gets back into place on it's own if I just let it hang down.
But let me tell you when you move it wrong it's a horrible pain!!
It took me a half hour to get dressed this morning.
I know to "dress the affected arm first".
But it still took forever.
It isn't right yet and it's almost noon.
It's hard getting anything done here because it's my right arm and I'm not good at all with my left!
Of course you can hurt your shoulder at any age so I guess this isn't just about getting old.
It's making me appreciate the rehab that stroke patients have to go through!
Yep, It's Always Something!!!

Most Recent Weird Medical Thing

Symptoms:
Numbness and tingling in my face. Both sides.
Slight tingling in finger tips.
Mild intermittent sinus headache.
I had this for about a week off and on.
I finally thought, "Gosh I hope I'm not having a TIA!"  That thought made my BP shoot up and I because super anxious which didn't help at all!!!  I called my Dr.
He saw me the next morning.
In the meantime I realized that this first started after my last dental appointment.
The tooth she drilled was upper back and nerve roots near my sinus cavity.  Also, of course. I had lots of Lidocaine.
Well, the Dr. said no TIA (thank goodness!)
He thought it had to do with the dental work.
Of course, since then I've had no further symptoms.
I see my dentist again in 3 weeks.
I drive myself nuts!


Has anyone else out there had anything similar to this??
