OMG - you're me! lol
I had shoulder surgery February 8th and my mobility still is limited. I still can't carry a wallet cause I can't put it in my back pocket or get it out. I am going to physical therapy regularly and am told that it's a long process but hell, I don't believe them anymore. I was told originally that it can take 4-6 months to heal completely but two weeks ago I was told that I'm right on track. I've gained about 30 pounds since the surgery so I know about the weight gain.
This week I had some of the most intense pain surrounding the surgical site that I have had since the week of the surgery. This is getting ridiculous. The one possible upside is that I've spoken to an attorney who says that if I am not ready to go back to work a year after surgery, then he guarantees me permanent disability. I'm not necessarily shooting for it but if it comes at least I'm not hung out to dry permanently.
