Good luck.....

good luck to ya man, when i saw this post i thought you were going to have surgery on your rotator cuff, but that sounds a whole lot worse than my surgery on my shoulder for a torn rotator cuff, hopefully rehab won't be a bitch for you

Nothing like a little Hydrocodone/APAP 7.5mg/500mg to make things better, eh? Or was it even stronger?....
