I had an RSR on July 23rd, after dealing with severe chronic pain for 5 yrs, and am 90% better than I was previously. I waited 5 yrs after a failed rotator cuff surgery. My surgeon in Mpls. didn't think I was a good candidate because of the condition my shoulder was in. I tried PT, acupuncture, trigger point injections, steroid injections, etc. Nothing worked. Finally at my wit's end, I asked for a referral to Mayo. I feel like a new person. Recovery for me was much easier than my rotator cuff repair recovery!! My range of motion isn't great yet, but I'm working on it. I am so happy with my results. Just do it!
