Alex:
I went to an Orthopedic doctor yesterday, they took an x-ray of both shoulders, I know it won't show the soft tissue but the doc said that the ball and socket look good, no bulging or shifting so that indicates that there isn't any tear. I will be going for therapy starting next week, I also was prescribed a steroid which I don't really like taking but I will for a short time, which is indicated on my med. (about 12 days). I started taking it last night and my pain in my shoulders is just about gone, ditto, for my groin and trochanter area, it is such a relief, I have been in pain for about a month. So, I will do the therapy and see what happens, thank you for your advise, I will keep it in mind, I may yet need it.
