Well, I started physical therapy last Friday. Over the weekend, I kicked my own ass doing all of the exercises that the therapist had me doing. Today, I went back for my second appointment, and something that had caused me significant pain on Friday - stretching my arm out to my side as far as I could - was almost effortless.
She then had me extend my arm out in front of me as far as I could, and I was able to fully extend my arm, something that she said no one had ever been able to do their first time! Again, this was without much effort or pain. Followed by some pully exercises, and I could definitely feel it stretching, but not to the point of pain.
All in all a great day, and I can't wait to see my doctor next week to get some of the activity restrictions lifted hopefully. Sometimes it's the little victories in life that make you feel the best :)
