had a SLAP Bankhardt procedure (SLAP and rotator cuff) the day hurricane Ivan rolled in with sustained 60+mph winds in Columbus, ms....the ride home with my wife driving in that wind SUK'D, seemed like she hit every pothole she could or even couldn't see!!!
I was in a sling for 6 weeks before starting rehab (I guess recovery has changed, b/c friends have had it since then and started rehabbing the next day). I was released to shoot 3 months after surgery.
