Lol. I see it now and I would not have been offended. It might have just provided some humor to lighten the issue. I see I should have spelt it as cortisone injection. [emoji85] [emoji85] It has been a very blonde day for me. I could not remember the word rotator cuff and a few other words either. Thank goodness it is friday, as i don't have to think too hard. [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]I WAS going to provide a good snarky comment to your one sentence - “So he gave me a quarter zone injection.”
But, given the serious issue, decided maybe not.. So get better!

Whahaha. I have a domestic worker so I cannot use that excuse.
Actually it took longer to set the injection up and clean the area. And the injection was not sore at all.
This is what he did.
In-office testingEdit
As part of clinical decision-making, a simple, minimally invasive, in-office procedure may be performed, the rotator cuff impingement test. A small amount of a local anesthetic and an injectable corticosteroid are injected into the subacromial space to block pain and to provide anti-inflammatory relief. If pain disappears and shoulder function remains good, no further testing is pursued. The test helps to confirm that the pain arises from the shoulder primarily rather than referred from the neck, heart, or gut.
If pain is relieved, the test is considered positive for rotator-cuff impingement, of which tendinitis and bursitis are major causes. However, partial rotator-cuff tears may also demonstrate good pain relief, so a positive response cannot rule out a partial rotator-cuff tear. However, with demonstration of good, pain-free function, treatment will not change, so the test is useful in helping to avoid overtesting or unnecessary surgery.
But instead of the corticosteroid he used cortisone.

Love it.
Is there a initiation or hazing I have to go through or do I just enter the Dark Room and shut the door?

Welcome Ray! Just sit in the corner, shout, joke, count spiders or leaves. Ive heard there are other odd creatures in here too. Possums and door mice, horses and birds, a turtle tortoise or three. Interesting aliens from distant and close points of view.
Now...gently close the door and click your heels. Welcome.
The last tree project is basically complete.
You recall, we started with this..little gem laying about in the woods.

Welcome to the cold dark rooms. Full of corners everywhere. But beware, do not leave any homework or important documents lying around as the homework hound will eat them. You will want to poke a jellyfish or two in order to get some light every now and then. Don't step on the hedgehogs it will be a very painful experience. If you are too cold, go over to corner 6 or was it corner 9 ( mmm i cannot remember which one) but you will find some scarves, mittens, leg warmers etc. which were knitted by the woolspider ( if she exists). If you would like a drink Montgomery can bring you some coffee or tea or hot chocolate. But for something stronger you will need to wander over to the Drunken penguin bar where the One Legged Pirate will have most types of hard drink.Is there a initiation or hazing I have to go through or do I just enter the Dark Room and shut the door?
We are a bunch of fun pun loving international friends who talk a load of nonsense, weather, issues and anything else you want to. We like to use beans as substrate for our torts and if you mention cheese you might get points. But that is not guaranteed.
I am Carol from Cape Town and I hope you stick around and jump in with your own unique sense of humor. We won't judge you, i promise.

Yes I did thank you. How has your Friday been so far?
My ribs are healing on schedule but my leg is giving me problems. Went and had a CT scan on the muscle to see if the way it was attached to my femur has ripped away. Will know Tues.
Ok - long or short story on the last log project? Silent votes will be counted in Corner 13 of the ballroom.
Ok give me a minute to find corner 13. Just stepped on a hedgehog that CarolM told me to watch out for.
Too cute!! Good afternoon Murphy & Marge!
