You dislocated your shoulder. Why are you going "under the knife". That 'aint good. Did you tear your rotator cuff (did I miss something in this thread?).
Well the x-rays show a divot in my shoulder joint. That divot is possibly going to help in "popping" out my shoulder if I move it certain ways. The doctor is hoping that the physical therapy will strengthan the muscles and help the ligaments heal and hopefully keep the shoulder in place when I move it.
It sounds as if the surgery may be up to me. The only reason for surgery (I think) is to help keeping it from happening again.
