I have 2 full tears in my right rotator cuff with tear in my right bicep. I also have partial tear in my left shoulder. I’ve tried all physio and exercises but have been told I need an operation. I’m in so much pain and most days can’t lift my arms very high from pain. I was told that rehabilitation time is up to a year after operation. I’m 67 soon and unsure what other options are out there. I also have fibromyalgia, trigenimal neuralgia, chronic back, neck, hip, thigh, knee pain, TMJ, hyperthyroidism with many nodules, IBS, high prolactin, headaches, chronic fatigue, adrenal fatigue, lower leg pain, osteoarthritis and sacroiliac joint pain. This all happened from 2002 when I contracted Epstein Barr virus. Also a few old sport injuries. Before that I was healthy and fit. I use medicinal cannabis & duloxetine. I refuse to take other pharmaceutical drugs as I was on them for a few years and the side effects caused many problems. I’m allergic to cortisone, my adrenal glands failed for 9 months when I was injected for hip bursitis. I am under the Pain Management Clinic Sydney Australia. Unfortunately have had no luck controlling my pain. I live with pain 24/7 but cope as best as I can. Help would be incredible.

I have long haul Covid and had Epstein Barr in high school. Also allergic bronchial asthma for a huge part of my life. I was just fine until Covid. Diet really changed the asthma and avoidance of lots of other things. I had to figure it out myself as so many docs just wanted to give me pills and not cure the problem. Try looking at your life as a whole as you have so many problems. Analyze your diet and avoid fads. Non prosssesed foods, polluted water, ect.
Something is attacking. It takes a lot of work, but I am 79, no drugs and am doing great. It has taken years of work, but well worth it. Electro magnetic fields and all do add up. Wish we had a magic wand.
