I had an MRI a couple of weeks ago to see what was wrong with my shoulder. It has been bothering me since high school, but has always been diagnosed as a rotator cuff problem and then I am sent to PT. Well, my new doctor here decided to do an MRI on it to see what was really going on. First of all, I had to be drugged for the MRI because the machine wigged me out so badly. That was lots of fun. I finally talked to a nurse at the clinic today and he told me I have great cartilidge, but the MRI showed something called Parsons-Turner Syndrome. He used a bunch of words I didn't understand to tell me that what it does is affect the nerve bundles in my shoulder causing severe pain in my shoulder, arm, and chest. It explains my problems to a T. I even had to go to the ER over the summer with chest pain on the left side, same as my shoulder. Here is the funny thing. It is extremely rare. I can't find shit on it. Here is the one line I found:
Parsons-Turner Syndrome, which can be very painful and is not that common
