I have an appointment with my Doctor but cannot get one until 2 weeks time. Had shoulder pain a couple of weeks ago , that kinda went but now my left hand has a weak grip and fingers when hand extended twitch a little. Has anyone any experience with a simillar problem. I am going round the bend by searching google.

Hi Paul, am currently suffering a frozen shoulder (following a ski accident in Dec, but also told it can be contributed to being t1d also !), I got no where with my GP apart from a steroid injection and was given an MRI scan apt in Nov, so went private to get help and have now had a correct diagnosis and scan.

Yours could possibly be a trapped nerve and may not be t1d related at all, but hopefully your GP can guide you on this.

Take care when Googling, it really can throw up some awful things, I think we tend to over evaluate information we see online and it can wind you up something chronic too ! Hopefully nothing to worry about Paul.
