Damn shoulder. Looks like I'm being forced to get this thing treated. I had another bad night last night. The shoulder felt better yesterday and ok when I went to bed but then I woke up a few hours later with so much pain I couldn't get comfortable or get back to sleep. I made an appointment with the orthopedic doctor and saw him this afternoon. He said it's very possible I have a rotator cuff tear although unlikely it's a complete tear. So first step is an MRI which I have scheduled for Monday afternoon. Then I see him again the following week and hopefully the verdict will be physical therapy rather than surgery.
I'll go to the gym tomorrow and do the exercises I can do that won't affect the shoulder and then maybe hop on the bike. Until I get this taken care of, I suppose it will be lots of steady state cardio for fat burning and hopefully not lose too much muscle.
It's always something...
