Not the worse but still no Fun. Opiates the first 3 days and some once in a while the first month. Angry again when you start therapy then tappers off. Sleeping was the hardest part of recovery, a recliner does help . Surgery # 3 had me at a point where 2 of the 4 tendons could not be reattached and the same with my long bicep. 7 months out I'm doing push ups and working with dumbells to get my muscle tone back, a bitch at 65 years of age but getting there. Big thing is to protect the shoulder and for me that means working close to my body when lifting. I don't throw balls or swim any longer and bailed on this years archery hunt.


Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.
