Brief Answer:
I want to see your MRI reports

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir,
I have studied your case. I got this that you have bilateral shoulder rotator cuff tear and you have got surgery done but you are still having pain in both shoulder. I want to know little detail about your illness so I get better idea about your current condition.
1.Are you having Diabetes ?
2.Can you describe about pain like nature? When this pain increases?
3.Send me your current MRI report?
4.Send me Details of surgery?
Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you.
Thanks.
