A couple of weeks ago, I did one of my famous attempts at acrobatics [I fell]. I experienced pain in my shoulder and upper arm every night to the extent that I could not sleep. I went to see a very good friend of mine who is an orthodpod. He diagnosed it as a rotator cuff injury. He said lets try 500mg of Anaprox, twice a day for a couple of weeks and see what happens...No cigar. So, the next step was that he injected my should with cortesione [a steroid]. Well, not only did it cure the shoulder pain, but I swear that for a couple of days, my PLS symptoms sure seemed better. Placebo effect or the real deal?
Any of my fellow PLSr's have any experience with treating this with steroids?
