So I tore my rotator cuff over the weekend. I tweaked it bowling on Friday night and woke up Saturday with a little discomfort, but mostly soreness. I thought I overdid it bowling and that was it. I then went on and did yard work from 6:30am Saturday until I stained my deck at 10:00am and then played 18 holes at Field Club. By the time golf was over I realized my shoulder was more than just sore. I couldn't sleep for more than 10 minutes or so Saturday and Sunday night and kept waking up from the sharp pain from my shoulder to my neck. I got an MRI this morning and they found a moderate to severe tear in my left rotator cuff. Holy sh*t are these things painful. I feel like I handle pain pretty well, but this is excruciating. Was giving the inflammatory drug Voltaren and will go back if it still hurts in a few weeks for a cortisone shot and another MRI to see how it's healing.

Who else has had this before? Was your life as miserable as mine is right now because of pain?

TIA
