I showed the text you sent me to one of the guys I used to work with, and he has the same problem with his left shoulder. He can't lift his arm past about level with his shoulder, either. He said he had a long discussion with his doctor about the options and chose not to have surgery because a lot of times you end up worse after the surgery. He's letting it heal on its own - it takes a couple of years, but it was better than the risks associated with surgery for him.

I have no info beyond that. Sorry to hear though, Dennis.
