Uhmmm - ouch.  That sounds a lot like frozen shoulder, but transient.  A
friend has a bad shoulder like that. Favoring it may have caused some major
back problems.

I'm on Copaxone.  There's one side effect that's no fun whatever - every
once in a blue moon you get what feels like an anaphalactic reaction.  It's
not, but you feel like you've been dragged under a bus for the rest of the
day.  Not everyone gets it.

I have a feeling it was critters rather than pests. I caught a woodchuck
eating one of the tomato plants once.  I think he's been back for seconds.

It didn't smell, so it wasn't that bad.  And no guts hanging out.

So did Max, my Maine Coon.  I wonder if it's a breed thing.

Maxie was 15.  We think a stroke got him in the end. His back legs stopped
working suddenly and we had him put to sleep.  He was a great cat.
