Percocet. I do not play around with pain, I want to sleep.
Plus the pain only adds to my stiff muscles.
I see the PT twice a week and do the exercises many many times a day, various ones.
It started with passive stretching.
My PT said there is hope to melt your shoulder and increase the muscle. You have to stay away from the pain though. Does your massage therapist rub hard enough to hurt?...in a good way?

I have been on percocet.
My Massage therapist knows what she is doing. She's been at this for a long time. She is working with the pain mgmt doc and my neuro.
And Shappy, if I could get my arm stretched out in front of me to reach the wall, that would be a start. LOL! I do sleep with a pillow under my arm. I cannot even lay on my shoulder. I have to sleep on my back or left side. I used to sleep on my right side. So this is an adjustment.
