We went through the process of another visit to the imaging center for the last mri and then to the neurologist office with all the evidence. After 9 doctors, 6 visits for film and all the waiting for results we finally got an opinion on what is causing all the pain in her arms and neck. The neurologist said the film shows a torn rotator cup in her left shoulder. He did not look at the film for the right shoulder but indicated the pain could be a result of the left shoulder damage. He reccommended a orthopedic doctor today and the nurse made us an appointment for the 31st of Jan. We are hoping now that this doctor specializes in work on the left shoulder so we dont have to look for a specialist based on which one is involved. It seems now that doctors have a very specific area of the body to work on which requires many trips to and from offices that really like the insurance money available. I recall years ago when i worked for Nabisco they had two vice presidents in charge of fig newtons. One for the bagged and one for the boxed. We are truly living in a specialized society. One last tidbit, we will wait and make judgement on Mitch Mustain and his future at Arkansas.
