Has anyone else had painful shoulders and arms after coming off hrt? Or after menopause? I am finding it painful to do every day tasks such as washing hair in the shower, dressing, putting hair up, any stretching up or back movements cause pain. Ive had blood test to check for inflammation but they came back normal - doctor thinks its just menopausal symtoms- doesnt feel normal to me!! Any one else suffered similar symptoms?

I too have a rotator cuff injury since taking statins( now stopped) The doctor says it is unrelated to the statins but he said the same about my massively increased liver enzymes and was proved wrong after a scan and liver returning to normal after stopping them! The pain seems to be getting worse 7 months on. I can’t fasten my bra or put on coats etc without experiencing acute pain. Exercise doesn’t really help. Will try Pilates though to see if that helps!
