Results from my shoulder MRI:
Impression:
1. High-grade partial-thickness tear of the supraspinatus tendon with superimposed tendinosis.
2. SLAP tear.
3. Moderate acromioclavicular and mild glenohumeral joint osteoarthrosis.
4. Small subacromial subdeltoid bursitis.
All this and more today at your local shoulder!
AI Overview:
This MRI report indicates a significant shoulder injury featuring a deep rotator cuff tear (high-grade partial-thickness supraspinatus tear) with chronic degeneration (tendinosis). The, SLAP tear represents damage to the labrum/biceps anchor, accompanied by arthritis in two joints and associated bursitis, causing pain and reduced function.
Next Tuesday I see a surgeon to discuss options.

I could have been at this point 6 weeks ago if not for insurance, they wouldn't pay for the MRI until I did 6 weeks of therapy - which is dumb but that's big business.

Oh man—shoulder injuries like that take forever to heal. I had a tear in my right rotator cuff, and a tear in my left one too! It took ages... but now both shoulders are back to normal, and I can beat people up again. :D Keep your chin up! Stick with it... physical therapy, then get back to sports... you'll be fine!

Good morning...that's a lot to take in. I'm really sorry you're dealing with all of this. Wishing you strength and comfort, and hoping your next appointment next week bring clear answers🙏🙏

We'll have to see what happens. I've been in therapy for the last 5-6 weeks for it - which was stupid because they did not know the extent of the injury and it only worsened things...

I understand, A this major tear, you first have to have a surgery and after that physiotherapy will help

Now, let's see what the surgeon offers. Hoping you get the best care you need to get the best results possible.

Least I feel justified for occasionally bitching that it hurt.

The eye has cleared up some but has a long way to go - if it goes any further.

Sounds good and need good care. It won't take long time to heal (as my mother had same issue) .

This sounds heavy and needs surgery and physiotherapy too.
I hope you get a good deal for surgery appointment to get well soon.

It is a bit more than I had anticipated, but I'm not really surprised considering the abuse I've put it through over the years.

What's done is done, now the coming treatment will need you to have a serious rest to heal properly.

That’s a lot for one shoulder 😬 but at least you finally have clear answers.
I have cervical spondylosis at C5 and C6, so I really understand how much this kind of pain can affect you. Hope your appointment next Tuesday gives you good options and some relief soon! 🤞

But of course it is my dominant arm. Fits right in with all the other out-of-warranty equipment. 😆

That’s actually a pretty good way to put it. 😆 The out-of-warranty equipment line is spot on, like our bodies don’t come with support plans or easy replacements. And of course the dominant arm would be the one causing trouble, it’s the one doing all the heavy lifting in the background without complaining, until it does.

As long as I have a roll of duct tape and some baling wire handy I reckon I can get at least another 20 years out of most of it. 😜
