Here you go Virgil...the whole "doc speak" diagnosis:
1. Calcific Tendinitis of the distal infraspinatus and teres minor tendons with underlying stress response or reactive edema in the posterior humerus at the insertion. 11 mm x 5 mm x 14 mm low proton density, low T2, low T1 signal intensity.
My speak....basically a buildup of calcium between the shoulder and the tendons that surround it...the rotator cuff. Causes mucho mucho pain.
2. Moderate subracromial subdeltoid bursitis.
My speak....old age
3. Moderate strain of the supraspinatus/myotendinous junction
My speak...who the heck makes up these words, and how do you guys memorize them????
4. Moderate left AC joint arthrosis and stress response
My speak...I dunno.... they gave me a cortisone shot in the shoulder, ordered 6 weeks of physical therapy, and said if I don't do it, I'll get something awful called Frozen Shoulder...where the shoulder won't move at all.
5. Moderate glenohumeral joint osteoarthritis
NOW....if they can say something simple like Frozen Shoulder, that we all understand...why can't they speak English for the rest of it?
