HER2 Support Group Forums - View Single Post - Rina...how is the shoulder???

Rina,
I'd also like to send my wishes for a "quicker then planned recovery". I can only imagine how rough it's been. I hope your hanging in there and your not dealing with too much pain. Once this is all behind you...you will be so glad you did it. Nothing will slow you down.
