This morning's physical therapy went well. Apu was pleased with my range of motion, both when he lifted my arm straight up (normal is to reach 180°, which I did, without pain) and when he moved it away from my body (normal is 80-90°, I'm at 80), and none of it hurt. Also, the difference between arriving at 8:25 for an 8:30 appointment, and arriving at 8:33, seems to be the difference between getting to work at 10:15 and at 11:00.

However, this afternoon my back hurts, in a way that feels as though it might be connected to the PT, or at least to that shoulder. I've iced the shoulder, because it might help, done my basic stretches, and taken two ibuprofen. I am not pleased. (If this is my subconscious trying to get out of going to the gym, it's wasted effort, since I was inclined against before the back/shoulder twinges.)
