Default Status update

9 weeks post surgery - Started PT and am doing prescribed exercises between 3x/week PT visits. Pain and discomfort in upper back and both shoulders, especially the left side (pre-surgical pain was all on the right side). Turning head to either side is limited and sometimes painful. Learned to sleep on side and back. Sometimes painful in bed and always stiff and sore upon waking. Road 4 wheeler 2 hrs last week on rocky mountain trails in CO then was stuck on plane (thanks Delta Airlines!) for almost 11 hours the next day. Was stiff and sore but PT the next day helped tremendously. Traveled by car total of 16 hrs over this past weekend. Quite sore today after long PT session. I believe it's getting better, but it definitely is more uncomfortable than it was the first couple of weeks post surgery.
