Post Surgery Physical Therpy - April 8, 2009

I started Physical Therapy on my left shoulder today. I will be having PT (physical therapy) three times a week. My doctor indicates that my shoulder will not be fully back to normal for about 3 months after surgery. Slowly my range of motion and use of my arm and shoulder are coming back. I am still having a lot of pain below my elbow and above my wrist with a feeling of pins and needles and numbness. If I extend my arm in a certain way, or pick up something heavy an excruciating pain occurs. Once I endure the pain, it's hard to get rid of.
