Have you ever?  WELLLLLL, I have!   But I won't let all of the cats out of the bag today, BUT, one I have done and wish I hadn't, is...no nothing that freaky,  but.....what do you do when you've slept on the cold wet ground in the park at one in the morning, cuz you had no place to sleep otherwise AND you get bursitis in your shoulder and I can't get rid of the damn ache and pain and all the numbness and tingling  in the arm for the past week since I did this silly, dumb, but unavoidable thing?  I've done heat and tylenol, cold and NSAIDS, steroid shot, (not in the butt), acupuncture WITH electricity and no I don't want to use massive quantities of meds to dull the pain.  I want to  FIX IT.  Please, there must be other over 50s that have successfully defeated this terrible, awful foe, however acquired.  By the way, if you got yours in a more interesting way, I'd like to hear! Thanks, Miccah

    torn rotator cuff!!! That requires surgery doesn't it?  owwwwwwwwww. keep it padded. where are you that you have to sleep on cement? I hurt myself all the time but can't take pills cause I'm on blood pressure and antidepressants. Massage it gently--hope your getting it taken care of. Advill would be good. In frequent doses. do you have a sling on your arm? I'm almost 60.
