So went to the Rheumatologist this morning and he was shocked when I told him about my shoulder. I showed him the pictures of the xrays. So sounds like no more cortisone for me but have to use this other synthetic version of it and not covered and it's 500 bucks but with the real cortisone it can create problems with infection.
So after I had the ekg I took the results next door to my own dr.
I have to go for a complete makeup of my heart with nuclear meds and the good old treadmill. Gotta love it.
But I'm 75 and my dr wants me in good shape. He said we have 6 or 7 parts to a heart and one section the electrical portion isn't where it should be but been like that since 2004.
He did agree that my problem is reflux though so that is a big relief.
Sucks getting old but beats the alternative as I always say
