Just the thought having my pec minor muscle clipped doesn't sound appealing to me at all. I make my living coaching baseball and I need to be able to use my arm so I have to do a little research on how clipping the pec minor muscle will affect how I do my job. I'm in good spirits though and make the best out of every day possible.
I'm not sure what you've been told, but the pec minor tenotomy results in no difference at all in terms of functionality. Dr. Donahue has had MGH shoulder specialists look at patients he has operated on and they can't tell a difference.
