Hi Teresa,
You are very welcome.
Sadly, many people who have any kind of surgery will start to do things 'they shouldn't' because they are feeling better or the outside scars have healed.
Even if the post-op tests show you are healed, we have to remember that the cut areas are weak.
They are not as strong as they were before you were injured and/or operated on.
Way back, I had surgery on my left shoulder to repair a tear (thank goodness, not my rotator cuff).
When I went back after a few weeks and some time in PT, the surgeon said I was healed and could return to my usual exercise activities which included weights.
My PT said NO!!!!
Guess who I listened to?
My surgeon.
I felt good and wanted back to weights.
Within 3 months, I was back at the surgeon with pain in my shoulder.
You guessed it, I reinjured my shoulder and needed another surgery.
This time, the surgery was going to be worse because the tear extended further.
That is when I learned my lesson about being patient and waiting.

Happy Sunday!
