I am a diabetic with chronic shoulder pain in both shoulders I have been told by my gp that it is "frozen shoulder" and that it could last for a very long time 3-18 months He has also said it could be myopathy being that in scans and xrays I have had no spurs or calcification show up. I have multiple auto immune problems & also osteoporosis. I have been told that I need to use my shoulders as much as possible so that I can keep up the limited movement that i have now. Hope this helps ya

I've never heard of that. I've been diabetic for about four years now, and all my joints are fine. Of course, I'm not overweight, keep my sugar down, exercise regularly, take a few supplements, and eat a very healthy diet. Maybe that has something to do with my lack of symptoms. My recent blood test showed an HbA1C of 5.8 which is considered non-diabetic, so I must be doing something right, apparently.
