I have lurked on this list for a long time and learned a lot. There is so much combined knowledge that I hope someone might have an answer to my question. I have posted my MRI findings below
1..linear partial intrasubstance tears of the supraspinatus portion of the rotator cuffl 2..prominent middle glenohumearal ligament and smallanterior superior labrum consistant with Buford complex 3.. There is a slap tear involving the superior labrum at the biceps anchor and posterior to the biceps anchor. No paralabel cyst is seen Awful big words. Of course the doctor wants to do surgery and cut the biceps tendon. He said they don't repair them for people over 50 because it does not heal.Something I want to avoid if at all possible I also read somewhere that rotators can heal without surgery. Not sure about the Labral Tear of the biceps tendon.He says surgery is the only option for that. But I have proven them wrong so many times before and am hoping to be able to do it again Any input would be greatly appreciated Thank you kindly Christel
