Update:
So far so good even though if my doctor knew how much I was using it withing 2 weeks after surgery and especially 5 weeks he would have freaked but at my 5 week appointment he said it looked Great and I was probably several weeks ahead of schedule and due to ROM and strength no PT unless I want to.

The day after my appointment I left for the Philippines to relax and heal for 1 month. As typical and my life goes it was not relaxing or a vacation by any means. I worked probably 80% of the time doing repairs on my house over there and finishing up things I didnt get to last time. My arm got a workout for sure and at the end of every day I could hardly lift it. That was my PT and I was cautious not to do anything stupid to hurt it again.

Im going to start lifting again (if you can call it that) but lightly. No over doing it this time. Need to build back up SLOWLY.
