Jim, Let me know when you get it done. Depending on what they have to do, recuperation can be 2-6 months. I'm currently into 5 weeks of what the surgeon said will be a a 6-monther. It's no fun, but honestly, after about a week, the pain was not a whole lot worse than it was before surgery. After 2 weeks, about the same. Major healing occurred during weeks 3 - 5. I've not had a pain pill since sometime in week 2.
Of course, my poor wife probably thinks I've been a major pain! She thought she got over tying someone else's shoes when our kids grew up. a. > >Sometime soon I will have to undergo the knife for my left sholder >as I have a ligament tear in my left rotor cuff plus some bone >floating around from getting blown 10 feet by a RPG that detonated >close by in 1970.
