Hey all!
I had rotator cuff surgery the end of March and had no idea that the recovery time was so loooong. Well, at my age anyway! :) It took 2 months before I didn't have pain 24/7. It went down to maybe 8/7.
Last weekend was my first attempt at working hard with my right arm and so far so good. I didn't take on a full detail, only did a headlight restore on a 2001 Mercedes. (4 friggin lights).
I worked in the shade, about 3 feet into my garage, with the ceiling fan AND a box fan, yet about fainted anyway. We've been into triple digit temperatures here.
I had to wet sand each light 3 times (800-1000-2000), then polish with the PC 2 times. Took about 2 1/2 to 3 hours with plenty of breaks. I was sore, with some after-pain in that shoulder, but not too bad.
Almost human again!
 
Glad to hear your not in pain as much as before. Good to see you working again, keep working the shoulder lil by lil and you will be better then before. Good luck
 
Thanks guys.
I remember when I was like 16 years old.....could break a leg, then the next day....POP! I'm healed!
Not exactly the same magic healing when I'm 58 1/2.
