Hi, gang. I went to see the orthopedic doctor Monday. He was much more informative than my family doctor and I'm glad I made the trip-an hour away. He did a thorough exam of my strength and range of motion. He does not feel I tore anything! He said it was inflamed and he put a shot of cortisone in my shoulder. The first night I still had a lot of pain. Today, finally, it feels better. I have some isometric exercises to start next Monday and then move on to 1 lb. weight exercises after a few days. I'm to do the exercises 2x a day and ice for 20 minutes afterwards. I'm going to give it the summer to heal. I'll ride bike and use the light weights and reevaluate in August.
