So I juat had surgery on my rotator cuff

Its bullshite. ortho told me before mine the benefits were marginal at best .he was correct

My shoulder, pain wise and range of mobility are prob worse now than before. not extremely but worse. and I did extensive PT after mine for almost six months

So a lot of mixed reviews .My first thoughts are that this is extremely painful. Sucks that I can not lift for a while.

I had rotator cuff & labrum surgery together..it turned out to be a good experience (my arm was really fcked up).., hopefully you had the type of shoulder surgery with 3 small incisions and the use of cameras and long tools and drills & not the type of shoulder surgery where they lay your shoulder wide open and operate... afterwards doc told me it was gonna hurt like a mfcker and to sleep in a recliner and he gave me a high tech sling with a buncha straps and cushions to secure my arm close to my body and in a comfortable position.. when I got home after the surgery I was able to cut our grass with one arm with a self propelled lawn mower,, the anesthesia block had not worn off yet.. The first two nights in the chair were ruff but they gave me some pain medication and it helped ..physical therapy was fun because for the first six weeks all I did was lay there while an attractive therapist stretched my arm and held it between her breasts for an hour.. the 2nd six weeks I had to do a buncha goofy exercises but my shoulder started to feel like a champ and it was all good .

They told me the hardest part would be the therapy.. stick with it.
