Shoulder surgery #2 - 1 month

Its been one month since the surgery and everything has gone very well.  Hardly any pain during most of the 1 month period and I have been sleeping well for the most part.  There have been occasional nights when I had a little discomfort or restlessness, but that was very rare.

I am now cleared for the first phase of PT (have been for a week), but I have had to be conservative due to cataract surgery last Wednesday.  Now that I am beyond the 5-day post-surgery caution (for cataract surgery), I am ready to begin bi-weekly PT sessions, home PT, and more regular gym visits.

For now, gym workouts consist of recumbent cycle and abdominals.  But I will probably also start leg workouts this week as well.

Its also starting to get realy hot in the afternoons, so I am not too sad about my reduced level of activity.  I just keep thinking about being back to full strength by fall!
