When I had mine done six years ago the doc said most people have it done so they can sleep again. The other guys have explained it pretty well so I won't be redundant with advice that's already given.
A year ago I was at an orthopedic clinic waiting in the hallway to see a nurse and on the hallway wall they had charts explaining the different surgeries they do and what to expect. I was reading through thru it and the information about shoulder surgery caught my eye. The recovery period for different shoulder surgeries was the most interesting to me. According to their information A rotator cuff surgery recovery period is twice as long as the recovery period for a complete shoulder joint replacement. After rotator cuff surgery the shoulder should be nearly completely immobile for several weeks and the patient isn't back to work for six weeks with a period of limited use after that. For complete shoulder joint replacement they want you to be moving it right away and you're typically back to work in three weeks. I thought it'd be the other way. Anyway, Google is your friend. You'll find out more about rotator cuff surgery on the net than you will in the doctor's office. Good luck and let us know how it turns out. Jim
