That familiar pain is back, but this time in my left shoulder.  When I first got sick my right shoulder had this excruciating pain and within a few days I couldn’t move my arm.  There was a puffiness about it, sort of spongey.  The Thalidomide killed off the plasmacytoma’s I guess, as I was able to move my arm again after about a month of taking it.  I believe arthritis or something set in afterward.  My shoulder is weaker and just feels like it pinches inside when I move my arm. 

Now my left shoulder has that same pain and pinching feeling.  A few days ago I had to take the break through pain pills. 

 I see Dr. D Thursday.  She’ll have results of several tests.  I’m getting very curious. 

I’m really fatigued lately, but I’ve been staying up late and lots of stressful situations, so hard to tell how much fatigue is due to illness versus what I’m allowing.
