@burakb Thanks for reaching out to me. I viewed your link and I am intrigued by the potential. I will do a little research and may even add some of those exercises to my routine. I’m really interested in your experiences moving forward. My acupuncture is not about a month in and I can tell you that the constant humming in my shoulders has all but been eliminated. I’m not sure I’ve gained any more mobility in my left arm but my Acupunturist advises, “it will take time and we’re looking for small and gradual improvements”. To add insult to this, acupuncture is only partially covered by my insurance and being a skeptic I’d like to think I would see better use of my arm before my bank account is emptied. I’m still optimistic it can help. I’d love to continue our journey in this battle and like you am happy to be on the right side of the dirt . My most immediate goal is to be able to pick up and hug my 18 month old grandson. I keep that thought in my mind as I work thru this. I’m also open to discussing with you further if you like to private message me, I ok with that. Keep the faith, chin up!

@craigbauer hi again it has been a bit of time that I didn’t write because I was doing research and I have been offered with a solution; Micro surgery and tendinitis Transfer from from my leg to my trapezoids so that it can replace my deltoid. I’ve been said that if everything goes right, I can lift my arm up to 30/40°. And as a second step (for my bicep), they will move the muscle from my elbow and move it to my biceps on papers it seems like a good plan, but I’m cross checking and then I will decide, did anyone at the similar surgery or has been offered similar surgery?
