Maybe it's a good thing that we can't find anyone on forums that have had the EL. May indicate the outcome is good and they are getting on with their lives. Trying to think positive.

My recovery from the shoulder surgery is going good. I have a little over a month before I can start lifting heavier items.

Stang1,

I do, but try to limit the use of my arm due to pain and fear of further damage. The Physiatrist has indicated my scapula is significantly protracted and rotated, completely biomechanically unsound and the trapezius is significantly wasted as well as the deltoid.

I hope things aren't to the point that surgically nothing can be done.

Still hard to believe that there are so few that have gone through this.

Well, I hope to have information to share with you next week.

Glad to hear your recovery is going well. Can I ask how old you are?
