How Effective Is Shoulder Arthroscopy Surgery For Bone Spur?
I need shoulder arthroscopy surgery for a bone spur that has caused me pain increasingly. I hesitate to schedule it because I am on blood pressure meds and have a low resting heart rat of 45 to 55 bpm. I'm a 61 yr old woman in good condition otherwise. Am I being overly worried about doing this surgery?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Shoulder arthroscopic surgery for bone spur is a good option. It is a minimal invasive surgery also. So many people has got good effects from arthroscopic surgery. You can talk to your anesthesiologist about your BP and heart rate. If you are fine with that then you can go for it.
Let me know if you have any further query
