[QUOTE="badrinker, post: 4337262, member: 3822"] Had mine done probably 20 years ago. Did my rehab faithfully and it did well, but still had some restrictions on ROM, most notably I could throw a football but not a baseball. Oh well I wasn't a threat to go pro anyhow. Fast forward a year. Needed to get something out of garage attic. Too lazy to walk up to the shop 25 yds away to get the ladder. Saw I had 1/2 a sheet of plywood and 2 saw horses in garage! Plywood on horses, I can reach attic with my hands and pulled myself up. Success! Well, not so fast. Now I'm sitting on the edge of the attic access staring down at that sheet of plywood. No way to get back down there but hang by my hands and drop. Yep, tearing sensation in shoulder. I'm cussing myself, surgery and rehab down the drain. I start moving my arm around to assess the damage, actually feels pretty good! Hey, I can now throw a baseball! Not the recommended way to reduce scar tissue, but it worked for me! [/QUOTE]
