Maybe they could give you an injection for the pain.
Prayers for you, MamaB. While not having ever had such a problem, I have known people who have, and of course it's no picnic.
It would not be a real problem except that hubby hurt his shoulder getting his luggage out of this car at the airport recently. He has to have a MRI in the morning. I told him we were a pair! Not sure what kind, yet, though.
