Hi Deane,

I'm sorry to hear that you need surgery and surprised to hear that you need surgery. Your last post gave me the impression you were healing that shoulder with the right exercises?

I'm particularly interested in what's happening with you because I'm going through the same thing.

Is the rotator cuff actually torn to the point it needs surgery? Is that what the MRI showed? The doctor said it won't heal on it's own with exercise.

If your surgery is on April 12, then it's a bit late for this. My doctor suggested I read topics on "mouse shoulder."

shoulder mouse Google search

mouse shoulder article

and my chiropractor gave me one of these to work with. He (and the company itself) said using it will help put the shoulder structure back in place....

You wrote: "I had a major blood test done that only 2 labs in the country do. It shows just about every marker and indicator for about every condition or disease you can think of."

Can you tell me more about this? I get blood work done every three months and I'm due to schedule my next one any day now.

Thanks

Mark
