Huh, I'm reading and looking up these words you guys are saying and it is starting to look exactly like the symptoms I have been having with my own right shoulder! I feel like a giant gaping rabbit hole just opened up next to my desk.

We're discussing calcific tendinitis (https://radiopaedia.org/articles/calcific-tendinitis?lang=us). If you think you have it, you can see a doctor and consider shoulder radiographs to start.

If you think you have it, then you don't. If you have it, you won't think, you'll know.

Spoiler: because it hurts like hell.

That doesn't make any sense, it would imply that anything that hurts would automatically be the same diagnosis.

Both inductive and abductive reasoning would say that just because something hurts that doesn't mean that everything that hurts is that thing.
