Took a few anchors to reattach everything.  Absolutely sucked. Had a good massage therapist get my range of motion back. It was absolutely miserable to go through his treatments.

two anchors for me, I swear its therapy just talking w people that have gone through this type of surgery, you’ll never know the pain until you go through it.  I will not have the frozen shoulder to deal with, heard about it and I’m working too hard to get it.

Good job man! Keep at it and I swear it gets better!!! Massage definitely helps to break up some of the scar tissue as well but nothing beats movement

Thats good. you dont want it. I worked hard to keep from getting it. Dont know why I did. I tried several options to get it freed up. The Massage therapist was a last ditch effort before manipulation. He would have me lay on my back and have somebody pull on my arm while he dug his thumb and fingers in until they cramped and then resorted to using his elbow. He would tell me."Your one tough s.o.b." I didnt feel like it. A couple times I thought I was going to pass out from the pain.

Good God man, that makes my arm hurt just heading about it!!

Encore 280:
Went to the doc yesterday and explained things so he agreed with the MRI. So now just waiting for the MRI schedule. It'll be a relief just finding out what's going on in there. After reading what you guys are posting, surgery will be a last ditch effort but pretty much out of the question. Getting too damn old for anymore misery. I'll just deal with it.

Ridgeratt:
If you do get it done see if your doc will script a Polar cold ice machine it is a god, send in recovery.
If this is a L&I claim they will exhaust all the possibilities to avoid the surgery. Including a cortisone injection.
