Love your attitude toward surgical intervention, which my natural tendency is to avoid. Never had elbow or shoulder issues until the last 6 months. A steroid shot immediately quieted the elbow pain, so this week I received the same for my shoulder with little result. Surgeon didn’t recommend an MRI, so not really sure what I have going on. No pain with golf swing or reaching overhead, but “sewing with a needle” motion (right arm- left to right lateral motion) lights me up! Sometimes it makes a popping sound during this motion. I golf almost every day and am worried I might end up with a tear similar to yours. Turning 70 this year (no Spring chicken). Not sure WTH to do. I’ll keep hanging around (smile). Headed to Alto, NM, soon. Are you nearby?
