"Holy shit, Batman!" Are you trying to tear loose the repairs to the shoulder joint?
I concur with RF1. Total recovery is long term, measured in MONTHS... not weeks.
If the Percocet is working for you, you might try one about an hour before therapy.....don't expect it to totally take away all pain. Once you start working that arm with light exercises, and especially when the therapist gets to stretching downward, sideways, and towards you head, there WILL BE PAIN! On a positive note, the ice pack will feel good.
If you have not been applying an ice pack at home, try it. It will help reduce inflammation.
Looking forward to your report of your first physical therapy session!
