Thanks for the info, and I hope things will improve for u. I've read that it takes almost a year and half to recovery from a frozen shoulder. I know how you are feeling, but hang in there. My surgeon informed me it's going to take almost a year and half to see improvement. So take it one day at a time, and don't over do it. Thanks for the reply.
