Hi all. In my search for info on CP I happened across this list & subbed.
I'm male, mid 40's, good lookin'....LOL w. spaticity that mainly affects my
arms. In recent times I've had soft tissue damage in L shoulder & its gone
berserk... gross movement I don't usually regularly experience.
I saw a specialist, had an MRI & he's suggesting medication to reduce the
movement so the inflamation can heal. I have no idea of the brand names of
the drugs he's thinking of but I'm wondering if any of you have been in
similar situations & found drug treatment effective. My interaction w.
medico's & disability services ceased 30 yrs ago so I'm a bit in the dark on
advances since then.
Also wonder if anxiety conditions are common amongst people w. CP. I've been
reading some of your posts & found they resonate... concerns re medical
treatment & practitioners, difficults days & situations etc...
thanks
Kieran
