Victoria,

I have similar problems, especially the hand swelling (my left wrist looks deformed) and the shoulder blade pain. What has worked best for me for the shoulder blade pain is Flexeril, a muscle relaxant, which helps the back muscles relax and also makes me very sleepy. However, this past month I've had two series of trigger point injections and they have significantly reduced my shoulder blade pain, from the only thing I could think of to a minor problem.

The best ADR surgeons in the Los Angeles area are: Dr. John Regan, Dr. Carl Lauryssen, and Dr. Rick Delamarter. I had consultations with the first two and was pleased to find that their reputations were accurate.
