I have been worried about my shoulder also...
I went to the doctor and he said there was nothing wrong with the shoulder, but I lost most the strength in the shoulder and sometimes it aches so bad I could just die. Then I get these pains and numbing down the arm to the elbow.. but the stupid doctor told me there was nothing wrong with it. Just like my knee that was fine according to him. It went out and threw my back out. I think its time to throw the doctor out...
I happen to like my tag line...

Hope you get all straightened out.
i used to lift weights and i am just getting back SLOWLY to do it again very lite..
i had shoulder like yours, same pain.
it would not get better for LONGTIME.
took over year for it to come around.
you have to rest it real long for it to get better.
my brother had his operated on but i cant tell what they did to it but he is fine but now they found he has broken arm from 6 months ago,you believe that.
