Gale,
I'm sorry. It sounds terribly painful. I hope you do find something that motivates you and feels good to stretch. I did find this article that said massage was useful and I thought that this article might be helpful. https://www.health.harvard.edu/pain/...rozen-shoulder There are some CS workouts that are better than others. So maybe one day you will be willing try it again. I also use what I learn from them to do on my own and they have helped with my knees and back. Also, after you have done a particular workout several times it's pretty easy to mute it, play your own music and just watch to follow along. Anyway, hoping to see others pipe in with some helpful suggestions. Sending you steady progress wishes!!

(((Gale))), so sorry, it does sound very painful. I’m no expert and you’ve probably already tried these. My son is a kinesiologist & he recommended very similar exercises to this YT video to a friend of ours who was having shoulder pain & mobility issues. He did them very passively with a broom stick & found them helpful. These guys are a bit goofy but they know their stuff.

Last year I was having some pain in my right shoulder. It would wake me up several times a night with throbbing and aching pains. During the day I could move it but extending my arm overhead was very painful.
I finally went to my OS and was diagnosed with calcific tendonitis. He told me that if it got worse, it could lead to me not being able lift or move my arm at all. He gave me a cortisone shot and it took a few days for it to stop waking me up at night. He told me my body would have to absorb the calcium deposits for it to go away. And if it didn't get better they would have to do a "needling" procedure where they would break up the deposits. I just kept working on the mobility by extending my arm overhead, sideways, and backward. I did that several times a day when I thought about it. It was very painful in the beginning. But eventually the pain went away (it took about a month). My mobility is back and I'm able to lift weights again for shoulder work but certain motions still cause a twinge (like a double arm upright row). So I modify and do single arm upright rows at a slower pace. Hope you feel better soon! It's hard to have your motion limited by an injury.

There used to be some information on the Classical Stretch website about recovering from frozen shoulder.
All I found on the new site was this new page about breast cancer rehabilitation, and I guess the issues are similar. Maybe take a look to see if the exercises they show might be any help? https://essentrics.com/breast-cancer-rehabilitation/
