Had rotator cuff surgery on 19 May, along with removal of a bone spur. It was all arthroscopic--which I hope speeds recovery. The tear was "small", a result of whacking a big block of ice while shoveling snow in January, but the doc said there was probably an "issue" before from a skiing fall a year before. First week was awful, started PT the second week. Now at 4 1/2 weeks , I wear the sling only at night or when it gets really tired. I am told I can ride my road bike at 8 weeks, 16 weeks for mt. bike. How does that seem to others who have had this? The pulley exercise DO hurt, but I sure don't want frozen shoulder. I had the other shoulder done from a worse injury 12 years ago, and it never has been right since. Couldn't swing a golf club anymore.
