Second opinion Update

Well, it's not good news or bad news...I guess it's good news in the since that Bry's MRI according to 2 surgeons doesn't need surgery.  They are 85% sure of it.  They haven't a clue why he is still in pain or as much pain as he is in.  The doctor gave him a numbing shot in the arm to see if that helped.  I think it did later on at night, but not when the doctor had hoped.  So back to 8 more weeks of therapy to see if maybe there is a pinch somewhere that can be worked out.  We are going to see if a chiropractor could help and also a massage therapist.  Something has got to give and relieve his pain. Nothing is wrong with his shoulder, it's healing fine which is the good news. They told Bry that he could get back to his normal work and not "pansy" his arm any more.  I guess this will be a mind over matter type of thing.  Where he needs to wake up and think, "it's going to feel better today, I'm not going to let this pain win." Maybe it's like depression, you either wake up and let being depressed win or you decide it's going to be a great day.  Either way, in 8 weeks he will either be cleared to return to his mission or...who knows what!
