Rotator cuff? I know all about these injuries man. I have an ACL reconstrution in my left knee, a torn MCL in the right, a smashed disc in lower back and I tore my rotator cuff. I wish you the best on your recovery, the only advice I can give is to really pay attention to what the pysical therapist says.
damn dude you only get one body. you better start takin care of it. lol

well... what about this... will i ever gain full moveability of my arm or will there ever be a chance of popping it back out? is it a painful recovery?

I'm sorry to hear about that. Damn and you just got your new shortblock too. At least you have something to look forward to in Feb.

yea, i think i will have brakes, shortblock, cage, shifter and maybe a few other small things sitting around for when i can start using that arm again.. haha

u cant drive with ur left hand??

i have done it... but its hard as hell to reach over when the other arm gets slightly in the way.. i mean, if i had to i could do it.. but if i have an auto dodge ram sitting in the driveway, why not just drive it? haha.

they say you will regain full moveablity back but in all honesty mine was not as far as before but that was my problem is that i had to much range of motion. the physical therapy can be pretty painful at first but it gets better. also the first couple weeks after surgery is painful but it gets better faster than most would expect. The worst part is trying to sleep those 2 weeks.
