[QUOTE="jeneh, post: 135558, member: 26820"] Hi, I have had frozen shoulder syndrome since 2002. I went to doc back then and he said I had RSI due to working with mouse day in day out. My right shoulder has always been the worst. He recommended physio but I never did it being young(er) and little more reckless and eventually it cleared up by itself but have always had very weak arms and not a great range of movement with them. Anyhow, nearly three years ago my son came along and shortly after his birth I got trigger thumb in left thumb, had injection but didn't do trick so had to have it operated on. Year later I got it in right thumb and was sent straight in for operation. Both are fine now. On and off my shoulders have played up but doc always put it down to constantly picking up the boy and the increasing weight of him making shoulders sore. Always thought this was a bit of a suspect diagnosis but recently right shoulder has got really bad and not being able to bear the pain anymore went back to doc who finally diagnosed frozen shoulder. As my range of movement wasn't too bad then he decided against injection and is referring my for physio which I intend to do this time. Is steadily getting worse to the point I can bearly lift my arm up. I believe that we diabetics are more prone to such conditions. I have two other diabetic friends who have also suffered with tendon trouble in fingers and frozen shoulders. I disagree with the person's comment about it being down to good blood sugar control. My control is fine, my HbA1c is at a good level and one of my friends is sickeningly perfect with an HbA1c of 5.4 and she has had nearly every finger operated on for tendon problems and had treatment for frozen shoulders. Just got to face that we are more prone to these things 8(( Jen [/QUOTE]
