it's amazing how much better my shoulder feels already. while it is sore, it no longer feels like it's sloshing around in the joint (well, that and the dilaudid, anyway).
surgery was [retty much a best case scenario. no tear, just debridement and cleaning up of the joint. i'm really not in a whole lot of pain (due to meds) but obviously my range of motion is pretty limited.
so 4-6 weeks or so of recovery and i should be back at work (boo).
