I am also 10 weeks post op and agree with CLT and LH. I go through spurts where I think I have this thing beat and then have spurts where the nerves seem to act up. Even those spurts are not as bad as pre surgery. Probably the most frustrating aspect is I feel like I should be able to increase activities but flare ups occur afterwards. It's hard to find the right balance of increasing activities without causing pain responses. I beleive it will take a year or more to reach the full benefit which includes nerves calming down and strengthening atrophied muscles.
I do encourage you to start PT but listen to your body. Neck stretches and lifting heavy objects seem to cause me the most trouble. I have recently given more emphasis on stretching the pec muscles and activating the lower traps and serratus. I am getting a good response to this.
