[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 4336927, member: 25419"] I've had both shoulders done. torn tendons, reattached to titanium pin. Both surgeries were long recovery time. Do your PT religiously or you will lose range of motion. Do your PT religiously or you will lose range of motion. Do your PT religiously or you will lose range of motion. Do your PT religiously or you will lose range of motion. Seriously - I had been warned about this prior to surgery. A few days after surgery I ran into a guy (about 30 years old) that had had the same procedure. He was bitching because he had no range of motion, couldn't raise his arm over his head. He said "well, I didn't really do my exercises like I was supposed to..." I laid in the floor with a broom stick forcing my elbow "under the gun" to make sure I didn't lose the ability to get proper prone position. Yeah, I may go overboard a little, but I'm 15 years on from the first shoulder, 11 on the second and can do just about anything I want. [/QUOTE]
