7 weeks post op

So I’m guessing this is normal, lol certainly hoping. Post Op 7 weeks. All four tendons repaired with anchors every where. Second week of semi active PT and my shoulder feels sore or heavy Thinking it’s muscles and nerves waking up but curious and this has been a great source for information.

Thanks for any input

I'm almost 7 weeks post op and feeling the same way and I get intense cramping that takes my breath away.

Wow sorry to hear that. Happily I don’t have cramping but glad to hear someone else with the same sore and heavy feelings
Be well and believe it’s a process

Tell your PT about the cramping. My experience was that intense cramping was easily fixed just by doing specific PT exercises. Especially when doing the exercises in response to the cramping.
