It's confirmed as frozen shoulder by the phsyioterrorist.

He's given me some excercises and a strange piece of rubber, and I'm waiting for the steroid injection appointment to come through (should be about 2-3 weeks - it's holiday time).

The orthopaedics department is now 'Locomotor Services' because no-one can spell orthopaedics any more.

Mind you, he looked positively relieved when I knew what sort of joint the shoulder was, and his amazement that I knew what the rotator cuff did was beyond belief!
