History: About 2 years ago I injured my shoulder while being pulled behind a wave runner on a tube at lake Koocanusa, in Montana. It's bothered me ever since. About 6 weeks ago Ben injured his elbow playing basketball. Today we visited the doctor. Diagnoses: I have a calcium deposit growing in my shoulder, and Ben tore a tendon in his elbow. Treatment: Cortisone injection. (Ben just about passed out during his procedure.) Prognosis: Should have full range of motion without pain in about 72 hours in my shoulder. Hoping that Ben's tear will heal itself over time. Doctors orders: get a bottle of Ibuprofen, two ice packs, and snuggle up to a good movie. So that's what we did.
