Thread: Classic Report

Thanks for the encouragement Jerry! We ain't giving up...had a blast fishing the Tom Bigbee Waterway even though things didn't go as well as we had hoped....we'll know where to start next time anyway. I have about 40% function in my left shldr so far and I am doing my own "therapy" to try and help the healing process along as well as possible and prevent additional damage. Hopefully it is just a slight tear that will just be an inconvenience. We'll be making some more tourney's hopefully in the near future and want to enter some of the other MCC events along with the Washington tourney that we always try to fish. I wanted to try Wolf Lake this weekend but have too much going on and the shldr just ain't ready yet. Believe me....surgery will be the absolute last option. I've seen many rotator cuff repairs and you are right about being very painful and a Looong recovery time! I ain't got time for that, LOL!

I have what my orthopedist believes is a "slight tear" in my left rotator cuff and if this is a slight one, I sure don't want a full blown one, apart and aside from the recovery time it takes after a cuff repair! Hope that's not what yours is and that you receive a full recovery without surgery. I know that was not a pleasant report to have to give on yours and David's tourney experience, but thank you from all the rest of us here on the board.
