Update on “aching arm and cold hand” - (and fractured shoulder)

[KerryIreland]

I now have an appointment at a Vascular Clinic in July…BUT events have overtaken me…10 days ago I tripped on a toy car and fell on a wooden floor! I have a fractured shoulder on the same side as the problem arm which is bruised and swollen. I have a follow up appointment with a consultant next week. One thing I’m pleased about is that I had gone up to 3MG Pred. (After finding 1.5 too low) and with the trauma of falling, my PMR didn’t flare. i’m getting plenty of rest, which probably helps!

Oh dear - ouch as DL says indeed. Hope it heals well - terribly inconvenient.
