Day +42: Frozen Shoulder update
Todd has his appointment with a Orthopedic doctor at the Cleveland Clinic on October 27, 2014. He reviewed Todd's MRI results and concluded that there was a tear in the Glenoid Labrum tendon in the rotator cuff and an area of his shoulder joint was dented from a prior dislocation (at age 16 when Todd was sliding into home base!) which is called a Hill-Sachs deformity. He described the injury like the humeral head (pictured above) is like ping pong ball and when the dislocation happened it puts a dent in it. Todd's is not serious enough for surgery and it is likely he has been living with this with no serious problems since that time. Neither of these two discoveries are responsible for Todd's frozen shoulder in his opinion. He is not sure what caused this to happen. He said it is common in people with diabetes; one day they can wake-up and have a frozen shoulder for no reason. I think it is from the Neupogen. He said it was possible.
The frozen shoulder has loosened up considerably on its own with messaging, hot showers, heat, and doing some exercises we found on YouTube. To get his range of motion back to normal, the doctor recommended physical therapy. He will have an evaluation done by a physical therapist at a nearby Cleveland Clinic location in Avon Lake on November 11, 2014, who will recommend further treatment at that time. He will follow-up with the orthopedic doctor on November 24, 2014, at the Main Campus of the Cleveland Clinic. He also recommended heat and/or ice, whichever works best.
Meanwhile, I can't say enough about these exercises we found on YouTube. They are the same ones recommended to us by the Orthopedic doctor in a brochure he gave us. So, if you ever have a frozen shoulder, I highly recommend you check out this video:

But, I'm no doctor! So, as in all medical disclaimers-check with your doctor!
