Dear Dr. Diana, I am interested to know how are you sure you have fibrosis in your shoulder? What are your exact hints to fibrosis? I am 90% sure that in my body must be fibrosises – there cannot really be anything else going on I think – and I would like to be completely sure but I do not know how to get there. MRI might not show it, do you think? Blood values? Or rather symptoms and conclusions? Would love to know what your experience with fibrosis and diagnosis of it is. Hugs from Germany, Maja
Hi Maja, For me, it was an “educated guess”! I developed a “frozen shoulder”, which looked like a fibrotic event when I read about it in the literature. I also developed fibrosis elsewhere, so when I spoke to my doctor, he and I sort of agreed it may be fibrosis. The doctor offered to do a biopsy to confirm. I said, “Oh, nevermind.” 😉
