+1! Get that valve cover off and look for a broken valve spring or maybe the rocker arm trunion bearings have failed. The fact you went to two different shops and got two different compression readings is alarming. Pulling the valve cover is fairly easy. Can you do this inspection yourself? Maybe have help from a trusted friend or relative? Good luck.
