So I've been layed up in bed for two days with a sharp searing pain in my right shoulder. It started as a stab in one place and grew into a general burning up my neck, finally I started feeling sharp pain under my right breast in my ribs everytime I took a breath.
I saw my doctor today and she gave me 4 shots of cortizone in the right shoulder/back area, and one shot of a pain killer in my left shoulder.
Now I'm sitting here high on muscle relaxers and percocet with an ice pack on my shoulder and I am STILL IN PAIN!!!
What do you guys know about cortizone? I know it's and anti-infalmmatory, but when is it going to kick in, why do the stick areas feel so damn tender, and am I going to become severely dependent on this shit like the high school football players in the movies?
