I had shoulder problems about 4 years ago and my doc prescribed PT. At first, I had the same feelings you do. However, I made sure my PT knew about the mg and we discussed my concerns. She actually researched mg and drew up a plan to strengthen my shoulder without causing problems with my mg. It worked!

It may have helped that my daughter is a PT and has worked with mg in the past. I called her and found out what questions to ask and how to make sure I wasn't going to have more problems with the mg.

I did about 20 sessions and continued the exercises at home for several months. Here's hoping you get a good PT who will learn what she needs to do about the mg.
