I am a competitive POWERLIFTER. I hold WORLD RECORDS in my age and weight group. Seven (7) yrs ago I was experiencing the same pain issues as i do today. An ORTHOPEDIC Dr., recommended surgery to clean up the ARTHRITIS in my right shoulder. Two weeks before that scheduled SURGERY, the pain just WENT AWAY !!!! Now seven years later it has returned. On August 17th, I went to another orthopedic surgeon (the one from 7 yrs ago retired). I got a CORTISONE shot as I have a NATIONAL COMPETITION on August 30th. The shot helped very little. Pain went from 10+ down to 7/8. Im 74 years old and i want to compete at least once when Im 75. Ill stop competing and lifting heavy But I want to continue to train with MIMIMAL pain. I ive in NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. Can you help???
