AE, my husband had shoulder surgery and now has very little range of motion in that shoulder. He has to pick his hand up and place in on the table, desk, steering wheel. whatever.

CK, if you do have surgery, look for a doc who is board certified in neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery. You cover a few more bases that way. Finding the surgeon who works on the spines of a professional sports team is a great idea.

Has anybody tried that spinal decompression that chiropractors are advertising?
