@kneenee: Yes, thank you! The @grammato3 ought to let me know I’ve gotten a response so I appreciate it.

You have certainly had a lot going on - now and in the past - so I hear why you feel wary of more invasive procedures right now. On a personal note, I’ve also recently learned I have a full thickness rotator cuff tear but I have a number of other medical issues that unfortunately need to be addressed first it’s like take a number and wait in line!

I hope you’re spared of additional discomfort in the interim and are eventually able to get a more definitive diagnosis. Are you feeling frustrated?
