Thanks Tune, no PT was needed on my right, like new now. I can lift heavy objects to the top shelf with now issues. Left had only a 20 percent tear to the distal supraspinatus tendon. My right arm had a near complete retracted tear to this tendon with significant tears to 2 other tendons along with a partial tear to the long bicep. So I am hoping this one is less pain full in the first couple of weeks then the right. I have a great Ortho Dr., He likes RMK"s know!
