I have the same issue with both left and right scapula and have ping-ponged from orthopedists to neurosurgeons to neurologists for years with no real help yet. My current neurologist is testing for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy because the muscle wasting extends beyond the scapular region. Like you, PT has been minimally helpful. The pain level is steadily increasing and I take tramadol to try to keep it at a tolerable level.

@marthalena99 just wondering, do you have cervical stenosis or problems around that area of discs? I do and have had terrible muscle spasms in that area. I go to an acupuncturist & chiropractor, which is working well for me.

Thanks, I'm going to look further into Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy.

I've seen practically every specialty in medicine including movement disorder neurologist over a decade or so, but never heard of that condition.
