The pain and deep aching from my lower arm to my neck has been pretty bad.

But as bad as it is, I know that if a surgery is in the offing there are going to be some other things to contend with. Like the possibility of not being able to type so well, if at all. Some might say 'big deal', but I make a big part of my income from tapping the keys (and I don't mean Alicia) (I wish I did though).


Anyone go through the shoulder thing? One Shoulder at a time? both? How did it affect your business or your ability to work?
in the recovery process right now... had the surgery dec 9th... 6 weeks with a shoulder brace on, now in the first 6 weeks of rehab. not able to lift anything heavier than a cup of coffee. second 6 weeks be about strength..

so I guess what I saying is yes, I have had shoulder surgery, in fact once on each shoulder with a second operation 20+ years later on one shoulder. and yes it is VERY difficult to type.. just a few min a day for a few weeks... just now getting back into content production... just the MRI tell them what the issue is... they can fix almost anything now..
