Working out with PMR

67 and have been working out pretty consistently for a few years. I had right shoulder rotator cuff surgery in September of 2024 so basically no working out for 4 months afterwards. Started back to the gym everyday for an hour in January of 2025 and got to the point where what I thought was muscle pain and stiffness from workouts wasn't subsiding. After about a week of that I went into one hell of a PMR flare-up. Ease into it and do in moderation is what I found out the hard way.

I've been in remission a couple of years now, but I do feel some pain in my deltoides often while in bed and wondered if it was just those pushups I did or is this residual PMR? When I did have PMR, it only hurt while I was in bed! Once I got out of bed, I was fine! I know, weird.
