i'm about to schedule an appt with my ortho for a shoulder injury. not from biking and not really sure what caused it, but based on symptoms i think it may be rotator cuff. dang, there goes my shot at the big leagues! my nephew had the surgery last spring, not sure if there was one injury that led to it all but he is a golfer and hockey player, so it isn't like his shoulders didn't get a lot of work! he told me a buddy of his had similar problems and that PT worked for him, but not for my nephew. he swears by the surgery though, he's back to both hockey and golf and feels great. i have a good friend having the surgery on friday, so i plan to listen closely to hear info about the post-op. i'm hoping mine won't need surgery. i'm soooo trying to get myself back into shape, i don't want the setback. so fingers crossed. i'm also going to be taking care of my sister who is having a lobe of her lung removed in two weeks, and i may be needed for 4-6 weeks. so lordy knows i don't have ttime for my body to be falling apart right now!
