[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 32875"] Saw the orthopaedic consultant today re my frozen shoulder. He stated that diabetics can suffer this without having had a trauma to their shoulder, unlike non diabetics and regardless of good or bad control of their condition. He did a series of movements with my arm to see how badly affected it was. He has ordered a CT scan and am going back to see him on 30th Dec. He will offer me keyhole surgery to relieve the tightness if there is no improvement. He does not perform manipulation as complications sometimes arise. He checked the palms of my hands to see if there were any lumps?? Non evident luckily. He explained that diabetics with Frozen Shoulder often have Dupuytrens (not to be confused with Carpel Tunnel Syndrome). YOU LEARN SOMETHING EVERY DAY. A very reassuring man who knew his stuff. I looked up his profile on the internet and he specialises in shoulder problems. Feel confident that he will do his best for me. [/QUOTE]
