Re: Supraspinatus Tendinitis
 

ah thanx for asking Kate, 2 bloody needles they said...try SIX, and it hurt like hell, i had 2 lumps of calcification in my left arm (the one i was having done) so it took almost two hours of probing my arm with all those naffing needles to try and break them up....one of the lumps was hard so was really hard to try and break so i have to go back AGAIN for the same arm but be put under general anesthetic this time and have it cut open, then after that i have to have physio on this arm (left) and as i also have it in my right arm now i have to go through it all again with that arm...and to top it all the bloke that did it put the needle through an artery by accident so i ended up covered in blood....i can move my arm but it just feels like it did before i went in, still clicking and grinding and burning, dont know why i bothered

The op should put it right for you, sounds bloody nasty does that needle job.

Re: Supraspinatus Tendinitis
 

lol it was and it hurt, couldnt move my arm at all Tuesday and Wednesday, been high as a kite on painkillers for the last 2 days, havent had any today though, havent needed any yet, its a bit of an arse at night though, with only being able to sleep on one side its a bit awkward

and its killing me not being able to go on my bike, for a week :(

Re: Supraspinatus Tendinitis
 

well i'm off for another 'procedure' again at Beardwood on Friday, had another ultrasound on it last week and the calcification that didn't break up last time seems to have grown, having the same done as before....they said i'd be put under this time but that's not the case, i'll be awake yet again, not looking forward to it this time because i know exactly whats coming, needles needles and more needles, and 3 days of pain and stiffness afterwards....i do wish they'd get it right first time

Re: Supraspinatus Tendinitis
 

Oh dear another casualty fingers crossed they get it right this time. Good luck:)

Re: Supraspinatus Tendinitis
 

You'll be Ok Flashy.... honest. Understand what you are going through .. have people close with experience of it, and doesn't always work out the first time, but you will get there in the end ... x
