15 weeks post-op

Only one change on last week - physio tells me that the shoulder joint is now starting to glide properly. And apparently I'm improving quicker than most people at this stage. Still feels like it's taking a long time though!

Range of motion still improving, and improvements in strength becoming more noticeable.

Still aches occasionally, sometimes for no apparent reason!

A couple of hours gardening (winter pruning) was not good for it.

Good movement work helps tremendously, especially in the morning as I still wake up a little stiff.

Well my shoulder has now survived two Zumba classes and jogging three times a week :-) It does ache a little a lot of the time but I can generally use my arm as normal. So although clearly not back to normal yet it is progressing well. No problems sleeping anymore.

Doing a few physio stretches and daily movement work which helps to loosen up my shoulder each day.

Otherwise no news!

Made it to Zumba tonight and I feel fantastic! Shoulder a little achy so am sitting with an ice pack on it - the real test will be how I feel tomorrow.

Otherwise, nothing particularly exciting to report - continuing with slow but steady improvements. Sleep has been much better and I tend not to wake up during the night now :-)

Oh, and I managed a full stretch the other day, the sort with your arm over your head. Felt soooooo good!
