Maybe my arms don’t hurt enough, he just wasn’t very friendly or helpful. He’s given me a steroid to take - I told him I’m allergic to Kenalog. He said to take 2 pills of another kind ( I guess) and if it causes a problem to stop.
He said it’s arthritis as well as a pinch on my rotator cuff. Ordering pt.
He didn’t address the “catch” I get in my left arm.
Maybe he was having a bad day.
