I dislocated and relocated my shoukder at the beginning of March. I have more mobility but still a lot of pain and discomfort. However, the amount and intensity is too great for simply having dislocated a shoulder.
I need an MRI to check for a rotator cuff tear. I have had many MRIs in the past. However, I have an inner ear problem that has been aggravated for a while, causing a lot of dizziness and vertigo. I tried getting the MRI but couldn’t because being pulled back into the machine made me dizzy(er) so I couldn’t get through it.
The stand up MRI is a misnomer. For a shoulder injury, you have to lie on the injured arm. I’m in too much pain for that. What I need, is to be manually pushed back into the machine very slowly, so the dizziness doesn’t get worse. As it is, lying flat exacerbates it. I have called multiple MRI facilities and NOBODY will help me.
I don’t know what to do. I need to find out what’s wrong with my shoulder. It’s my dominant side and I may mever be able to use it normally because nobody will help me get through this test.
