ouch! not good.... will keep my fingers crossed... how'd it happen?

This is so totally a long story.
He has been disabled for like 20 years and they just keep doing test after test after test on his neck cause he had a neck enjoy that was fixed with surgery.
After the surgery, he was pain free for a few months and then in pain again so when things got totally worse a few months back, they didn't look any further.
I finally got him to go see my doctor and the first thing he spits out is the torn rotor.
This could have happened way back when and with pain killers he is on, and his doctors just didn't suspect.
If it isn't it, then we are back to square one.
If it is, hopefully it can be fixed, and he can at least get back to being somewhat funcitional.

Rotor cuff injuries can cause a lot of pain and if it is it, and it cuts the majority of the pain he has been living with I am going to be so teed off.
Nothing compared what he will be though.
This is just a what it could be because it probably isn't the cause of the main problem but it would be something if it was because, even though I'd be ticked, I'd be so totally happy.

wow! that sucks hon! agree that it's terrible if they've missed a rotator cuff prob all this time... but will keep my fingers crossed that he gets the help he needs... one way or the other... being in constant pain.... I know it's been hard on both of you...
