NB. I currently have a broken tendon/dislocation at the right hand side acromioclavicular joint/clavicle/collar bone. Although movement is not
hampered I do have to be precautionary when lifting heavy objects or lifting objects down from places above head height in case the muscle or
surrounding structure fails in action. I have recently been involved in unpaid ware house work trial for the retailer B&M and found there to be little
difficulty in mobility. The NHS has not provided me with any date for surgery although I am seeking further consultation.
