I made a post regarding some nerological problems the other day which explained i suffered from some weird syptoms that caused me to tremble, jerk and twitch. This went on for 2 years, got all the tests done we can rule out severe diseases like ALS and MS or parkinsons. Beening a hardcore lifter for the last 20+ years, i end up with some bad injuries Espeically shoulders, left eblow and knees. I feel like the problem lays within the shoulders, MRI and the surgeon told me that the shoulder joint itself is full of severe arthritis, the joint itself isnt round anymore more of a oval football shape, and on top of that the rotator cuff is torn but not bad nuff for him to perform surgery on. I get what you would describe as a dead shoulder, where the shoulder goes numb and i cant lift my shoulders, after a few tries it come back to normal i can feel blood rush back in there. I cant be a coincidence the neurological symptoms started when the shoulder gone bad, if i were to a scan what scan can detect if it is a nerve damage or impingement? and which part to scan on? the neck or shoulders? i feel like if the symptoms affect the whole body it got something to do CNS? so the neck? anyone got any thought on this? currently using tb4 and bpc157 trying to fix the RC tear.

Sounds like a cervical spine issue.

i always thought as well but when this first started i got both the brain and cervical spine scanned(MRI), they found nothing just bit of degeneration that comes with age. Its been 2 years maybe i need to do it again.

They symptoms came sametime when i had shoulder issues but i cant put 2 and 2 together, if the shoulder is damaged why is my lower body shaking as well? unless its the spine? very puzzled atm but i wana get to the bottom of this but cant afford to scanned every body part...

Bro, that's a bp med.. that gabapentin is probably what you need. Maybe meloxicam. What are these docs doing? Of course we don't wanna be taking these meds, especially long term, but if if it improves your quality of life while healing then why not? Better than getting comatose via pain meds.

You gotta put pressure on these insurance companies or they won't approve shit. I know that first hand. The lower body shaking could just be a weak core issue. Not everything is always related to one another.

Have you had any epidural injections? That's usually the first thing they try...

I came from Aus luckily most drugs are covered by medicare here, but everything here is so behind i have to get a prescription for simple crap like melatonin and it cost like over $200 for some weak ass 4mgs ones.
