Well, I saw my doc to go over the MRI today. No rotator cuff tear. There is a labrum tear and it looked like I probably dislocated my shoulder at the time of this crash (though with the old displaced scapula fracture, it seemed to make it hard for them to figure out what happened when.)
So 8 weeks of PT, probably no surgery - yay!

Woooohooooo!! Went to the doc after work yesterday for a follow up on my MRI. I saw my films before the doc came in and of course I didn't really know what I was looking at- aside from the obvious!
Doc comes in and declares me good to go with some PT... No tear or damage as we had suspected.

Might be my turn for this one
Was snowboarding on Tuesday, it was icy and windy and pretty much a white-out. No idea what happened. I was up, I was sailing through the air, there was a snap somewhere and nauseating shoulder/arm pain, and then I was bouncing on my back. I can finally touch my head again and there is some mottled bruising on the front of my bicep (which doesn't seem to be hurt at all) but I can't pull or push with that arm without pain. I don't have time to go to a doctor yet.
I'm not enjoying being left handed one bit!

awww Jess... that sucks. I hope you feel better soon and it's just a "flesh" wound like mine ended up being. I had no real "pain" after my fall and I think it was more adrenalin and the WOOO HOOO I'm not dead kinda thing, followed by MY BIKE, then checking to see if my friend was OK.
(note I checked my bike first)

Haha thanks, turns out it was a break instead. It's mostly feeling better but I get that awful deep ache every so often. But the PT should be pretty easy, since I can pretty much do everything if I'm gentle with it. Just can't put weight on it, so no bike rides for another few weeks.
