Hi @akogut, and welcome to Connect. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, and even though it has not been easy, we applaud for posting here. I'm tagging a few members who have discussed their experiences with severe shoulder pain - @ccorrconro, @success101, @kenl and @walden0228.

I would also encourage you to check out the Chronic Pain group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/pain/) and the Bones, Joints and Muscles group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/arthritis-and-joint-conditions-268850/), as there may be some discussions that are relevant to your pain. Have you found any methods to relieve some of the pain?

Lastly, if you decide you would like to see a specialist at Mayo Clinic, here's the link you can use to request an appointment: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.

Hi Audrey,
Mayo Clinic Connect is an online community where you can share your experiences and find support from other patients. I'm glad you've connected with @success101 and @dawn_giacabazi.

Should you wish to have your medical case reviewed by Mayo Clinic doctors, please call the contact numbers on this webpage http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63. You may also wish to look into the Mayo Clinic Care Network http://www.mayoclinic.org/about-mayo-clinic/care-network "Mayo Clinic Care Network members share Mayo Clinic's patient-centered culture and commitment to improving the delivery of health care. Potential members go through a thorough evaluation, including a review process that includes overview and site visits." See the list of care network members to find a care center closer to you. As Alyse mentioned, call the numbers at Mayo Clinic here http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63 They will help you get the care you're looking for.
