Well, I've been at physical therapy for the last 8 weeks ever since the "official" diagnosis of frozen shoulder back in March.
I had my followup visit with the specialist today, and while there's been some improvement, there hasn't been enough.
So, on Thursday I meet with a surgeon to discuss the next step. There are two options available, however I think he'll decide to go with the surgical release rather than manipulation under anesthesia. I could be wrong, however I'm basing my opinion on Dr. Mautner's observations today.
And to top it off, I'm still more likely to have it happen in the right shoulder now that I've had it happen in the left.
I'm going to try and get it scheduled for next week, when I won't have to take as much time off work.
Theoretically, it'll be outpatient and I won't miss that much work. But miss work I will, since this is surgery.
More on Thursday.
