About the time I think I'm going great...I'm not.
I'm hurting more today, but it's an ache, so I don't think I reinjured. I have a lot more range of motion than I expected, but little strength.
Also little stamina...
I want to be able to put my hair in a pony tail without hurting....
On August 7 I'm having surgery on my rotator cuff (left shoulder)
I'm way more nervous after talking to the nurse, than I was after talking to the doctor. And WAY more nervous after poking around on line.
And even more nervous after talking to my sister, whose husband had a very similar surgery done (shoulder labrum)
But it's at the point that it needs to be done. The first time it hurt was 20 years ago, and it flares up and then goes away...swelling and a little separation. Well, now it's a tear and it's not getting better.
My shoulder is getting stiffer and more sore, but I think it's because now I'm worried about it and using it less, so today I'm starting the same stretches that I'll be doing right after surgery.
