Thanks for the encouragement! I am uncertain that it will actually improve more than it has, it's been like this since I was 12 - I just didn't know about it as my life was so sedentary for so long. The neck injury from the mtb crash didn't help. Surgery is an option, but I won't go that route unless they can guarantee that my shoulder would be more functional afterwards, and of course they can't do that. My OD is convinced that we will, eventually, get there without surgery, we will see Giving up just isn't an option, I know what lies in that direction and I refuse to allow myself to be in that kind of condition (or lack thereof) again.
