I was diagnosed (via x-ray and MRI) with a shoulder calcium deposit which is growing on top of my left humerus ball.
The orthopedist told me that the tendon is starting to grow on top of the deposit.
He said that I could have surgery to remove the deposit and that the tendon would be re-attached to the ball if I remember correctly.
He said that there was a very small chance that the calcium deposit would go away on its own.
Alternatively I could simply just live with the discomfort.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a radiologist/orthopedist team in the
Santa Rosa area of California (about 40 miles north of San Francisco)
that could perform ultrasonic tenotomy and calcium deposit removal
via aspiration of the emulsified deposit, or, if not, if anyone knows of a good method to find a team like
this in my area ?
