When you had your surgery, was your bicep muscle "released?" That is when the tendon to the long head of your bicep is severed which allows it to fall out of the should joint.

Lord, I hope not! Is that like a heel cord release? Because if it is, my arm will never be the same. I had rotator cuff repair surgery in 2007 as well. Back then, I don’t think they used a nerve block. They inserted a pain pump lead and I had to have an ice therapy machine. With proper PT, I sailed through. Thank you!
