Might be out of commission

I hurt my shoulder several years ago, worst main I've ever had. No way to get comfortable when you sleep. Good luck!

 

Uggg....how did that happen? Hope all goes well.

 

I missed this one
Best of luck on the whole deal , heal up fast

 

Welcome to the flippin' ice club. Sorry to hear you tore the cuff, that one can be a betch. I was lucky and have only been down 8 weeks. Hope you heal up fast. Good luck.

 

Well the news I didn't want.. surgery its 50% torn , this is going to put a damper on deer hunting

The Ice got me, I went down fast, shattered my phone case when I hit.

 

Hated clicking the like on this cause it sounds very similar. I was playing hockey 4-5 times a week with no problems but while coaching my son's team in early January of this year I fell through the un-latched door to the bench and landed on my right shoulder. I though I had broke my upper arm so I went for x-rays. No broken bones but told by er doc it was likely soft tissue damage (sprained). 3 weeks later and I still can't raise my arm so my doctors sent me for MRI in February. Turns out I had partially torn some so of the rotator cuff tendons but completely severed the top one that allows me to raise my arm beyond horizontal. Been waiting for surgery ever since and I just received a call this week from a surgeon who I'll see for the first time on June 9th. I'm looking forward to getting this done and being able to swing the X27 again

 

Hope you feel better, the pain is no fun, and a speedy recovery to you as well

Like Rottiman mentioned above, if it's just torn, it does hurt but it will heal with time. I am limited on what I can do because of the severed one but I do find the torn ones do feel better the more I use them. I was told to keep it moving to avoid "frozen shoulder". Do a search on line for some physio exercises to do. Keep it moving but stop if it hurts. Best of luck to you as well.

 

Man oh man, it happens so fast and takes so long. Best of luck to both of you. I had a partial tear about 7 years ago from a ice flip. Took along time to heal on its own. They wouldn't operate on it as it was not that bad, or so I was told. To this day I cannot throw anything overhand. Take it slow but keep it steady as far as use and exercise.

 

Sorry JIM, I didn't see this post. I was replying to the first page only . I'm in the same boat regarding hunting....and I'm thinking of starting to practice shooting left handed

 

Dang....my shoulder is starting to hurt just reading your posts!

 

I had to cover my eyes with a wash cloth or I couldn't do it.

 

I've never heard of the open MRI. I could have used that as it was a real tight fit jamming me into that contraption

 

The OPEN MRI aint too open after the scan was over when I went to release the button my fingers hit the top of the tube so its tight, and I'm not a small guy.

 

Best wishes, es.
