[QUOTE="Flowerpot, post: 632597, member: 47217"] I have had frozen shoulders on both sides that have re-occurred. The first time I had Manipulation under anaesthetic (MUA) where under general anaesthetic your shoulders and pulled around into various positions to try and release some of the capsules. This worked to some extent but about 4 years later I had both shoulders completely frozen once again. I had arthroscopic capsular release on both where a camera and probe are put into the shoulder joints and the scar tissue and capsules are released and cleaned out. The arthroscopic release surgery worked well, it was pretty flipping painful afterwards especially having both done together but gradually I have got better movement back. I still can't raise my arms very high or reach around my back but I have a decent range of movement and my shoulders aren't as agonising as they were. During the first manipulation operation I had steroid injections even though I had said I didn't want them and ended up in hospital with DKA one week later so I would avoid steroids at all costs! It is such a painful condition and I wish you well with whatever course of action you take. [/QUOTE]
