Diagnosis: Impingement Syndrome

A little over two years into giving up my Covid-induced sedentary lifestyle, my right shoulder finally gave up the ghost, with my orthopedist officially diagnosing me with impingement syndrome -- the same thing I had on my left side back in the late ’90s. She gave me a cortisone shot -- which I welcomed until I read this -- and prescribed physical therapy, just as they did in 1999. But last time still ended in my having (very successful) surgery, so while I’m happy to have an action plan, I may be the only person who’d rather just go under the knife and move on with my life instead of dragging things out.

Thoughts and suggestions welcomed!

Uh-oh-oh: Was watching MTV Classic the other day and it got me thinking: If we're going to judge everything old by today's standards, has David Bowie -- who fought to have black artists played on the flagship music channel back in the day -- been posthumously canceled for the "China Girl" video yet?
