Just got another cortisone injection in my shoulder the other day. Doing everything I can to not have shoulder surgery number FOUR. I'm 35.
Side note: It stemmed from a Navy injury, so not necessarily an "old person" problem, but damn...
Also, ftr, steroid injections don't work for everyone. I had nearly a dozen of them between surgeries 1 and 2 and they didn't do crap. Navy docs just wouldn't listen, and your choices are a bit limited while active duty.
