@TrixieLovett That’s awesome, thank you for the response. I am glad you got the surgery and able to clean anything up. I know the mental aspect of it will be a challenge, the thing I fear most are spins like a reverse grab. But thank you for the encouragement 😊ðŸ™ðŸ½.

Also Step 2 was I had a cortisone shot for the inflammation since I felt like I had been taking so much Naproxen and Advil. That worked well for some people I know who had developed tendonitis but I didn’t feel anything. Clearly I had a more severe issue or mine got worse. Good luck!

@Athena30 I basically felt like my shoulder was falling out of my arm. For a few days if not longer I had considerable pain doing things like lifting a hairbrush for example, I was definitely hurt. The doc put me though a series of movements and manipulation and determined my infraspinatus tendon was inflamed and gave me Naproxen and assigned PT. I think this is a common injury and from everything I have read, even if it is a tear, in many cases you can rehab your way back to health; the inflammation could be giving you more pain than the tear itself.
I took a few weeks off but didn’t feel like much was improving for the time/money I was investing in PT, plus I felt better so I went back to my activities but with Advil cause I never felt 100%. I think I wore myself down, moves that give me the most trouble are pole spins and any type of kipping movement on bars/rings. I probably should have taken PT more seriously and wish I had had an MRI during the earlier diagnosis. I think surgery should be more of a last resort.
