First see someone el: I think that you should get another opinion from a sports medicine doc or another spine ortho doc. If you have shoulder pain i don't think it is t6 or t5, ...I would first have someone take a look at your shoulder so a sports doc can see your shoulder and your back..A shoulder ortho surgeon can see your shoulder...Get another opinoin.
