If you find a magic cure, Charlotte, let me know...   <g>  My doc doesn't 
think my rotator cuff is torn, but I'm still having all sorts of grief from 
the tendon and ligament damage in my shoulder from my nasty fall 6 weeks ago. 
 (And no, for those of you that didn't know about it--there was nothing 
anywhere near as legit as coming off of a horse--I tripped on a dirt clod 
while throwing hay over a pipe panel, and got hung up in the panel as I went 
down with a mighty thud.)  Time spent with negative ion therapy has sure been 
helpful, but dang, I wish along with everybody that there was some sort of 
"magic bullet" and that aging unfit bodies healed faster than they do....  
:-(  And when it fell upon me a couple of days ago to administer bute 
single-handedly (almost literally, with the bum arm) to a cranky filly that 
was really hurting from a kick, I have to admit I was about ready to slurp 
the remains out of the dose syringe...  <sigh>
