Had a visit with my shoulder surgeon a few weeks ago, and he became very conservative with respects to removing the ossification. Evidently the mass is involved with the arterty, and nerve and would be a very risky procedure. We opted to manipulate under anesthesia. With a nerve block in the shoulder, it was straight to 2 hours of therapy after the surgeon cranked it over my head. That was two weeks ago today, and I'm fairly pleased. Better elevation, but not much on the external rotation side of things. The manip. free'd the shoulder up to where it's no longer just jacked in there throbbing all the time.
Attached is the new tatt on my affected arm.
