Shoulder progress :)

I would ask him specifically what he means, unless someone here can help. In my experience, DOs and LMTs use different language than MDs and PTs when it comes to describing muscle composition, injury and neuromuscular function. What you might find in a cursory online search is almost certainly unduly alarming, because it's going to be MD-type stuff.

Bottom line, does it matter? It's going to be slow and very possibly incomplete progress. You want a ballpark idea of how far you're going to be able to get and how long it's going to take, obviously, but does it make much difference the particular language they use to describe the sequelae of your old injuries?
