    i have went for about 6-7 weeks and the arm did improve but not healed. will have to see an orthopedic about the arm. nothing i have tried has worked. i did everything i was supposed to and it still is only 70%. will keep you all posted but it looks like i may have to have the surgery.

    ASYTM - does it work?

    UPDATE - have been going for about a month now - the arm is much better but not healed yet. i would say it is about 50% or more better than before. the therapist said that when i have an old injury like mine, it will take longer to heal. so far so good.
