Good evening,
A couple of days ago someone was asking advice about shoulder pain but now I can't find the posting so I hope that the person who posted the question reads this.
I had a good deal of my lower jaw removed and rebuilt with bits and pieces from my left arm and all the lymph nodes were removed from the right side of my neck.I had considerable shoulder pain, at first the execises helped but after four or five weeks exercising seemed to increase the pain.When I reported this at the oncology clinic I was given four weeks supply of anti inflammatory drugs and told to stop the exercises.This worked a treat.
This treatment is not suitable for every one so discuss the problem with the experts at the clinic,don't start taking a/i drugs without the advice of the experts.
These drugs can cause gastric problems, I have a history of stomach ulceration and had to double my daily intake of Losec (omeprazole)so mention this if you are prescribed a/i.
If the person who posted the original question reads this would you please let me know
Keep Smiling Razzer
john
