@safarigoddess mine was my right arm and shoulder, and I am right handed. After six weeks of physiotherapy (one day a week) it has healed completely. The exercises I was given to do at home were very helpful. Before thatI couldn’t even raise my arm or lift anything. I am glad I didn’t need surgery as that takes much longer to heal.

Hi again ! So you never got an MRI to see exactly 'IF" it was partially torn ?? This has been going on for over 3 mth. I had the MRI and it is 50% torn, but I am going to try PT next week. I am so bad about following through with exercises but guess I had better if it may work !!
It is so strange to me that it only hurts when I'm lying in bed, trying to sleep. I can understand yours healing IF you didn't have a tear but ??? can't see something healing itself if it's torn without surgery but keeping my fingers crossed. I think I told you I don't mind surgery(had several for corrections, but !! 8 mth recovery !! YIKES, I'll go stir crazy, not to mention I will gain weight from bordom and eating !!! LOL !!!!!
