What can I expect from rotator cuff surgery?



My doc is thinks I'll need it, waiting now to see a specialst.
I really like to work out. Will I still be able to go running or at least ride a stationary bike. Should I work the other arm out? Should I still do abs? They'll probably tell me all this later, but I'm so nervous.
Experiences, please?
thanks:)

I had the surgery, and the most important thing is to follow your physiotherapist's advice and exercise routine. This is far more important in the short term than your normal exercises, and, if you think you're going to feel like running, think again, as it is very painful for the first couple of weeks.
running is out for a while , riding bike doubtfull , abs ok squats ok
rotator cuff surgery is operation on shoulder (scapula)
joint
so any activity concerning lifting or over use or shoulder is out
and as need to swing arms for balance while running and leaning forward to handlebars of a bike
abs ok as can do that while arm in a sling just be careful
Alot of discomfort for a long time. I have mine held in by a titanium screw. I am able to go to the gym and work out almost as normal.now, but it took a while I have trouble lifting things over my head and I cannot sleep on my left side(the bad side). Good luck, and be careful with the meds. I got addicted to hydrocodone during that time
