...the last visit to my sawbones was a revelation to say the least.
The MRI showed no problems with the rotator cuff (which is where he
had been injecting me with cortisone for these many months)
Turns out the problem is with my collar bone where it connects to the
arm bone, which in turn connects to the wrist bone, which...sorry,
couldn't help myself. Anyway, he plans to grind off(!) some of my
collar bone to end the conflict with the arm. In the meantime he gave
me another injection right where the two join, having to guide the
needle down in there amidst bone, muscle and tendon and God knows
what else. (a long-assed needle I might add, I should never had
looked at it!) It seemed to take forever while I frantically searched
for a bullet to bite on. The date is not set as yet for the slicing
and dicing, but sometime soon I hope and get this aggravation over
with. Just looking for a little pity here. ;-)

I understand they start grinding the bone at the top of the skull and work
their way down, so you may not only *feel* better, but *look* better, too.

Who loves ya, Frankie?
