Hey bud,

Rog doesn't do this column but let me give you a partial answer to your question:

Regarding MSM, if your rotator cuff repair was muscular, the MSM will have little effect. If the repair concerned cartilage work, then yes there will probably be some benefit in taking it. Be aware however, (according to my orthopedic surgeon) MSM is more effective on lower body joints (med science doesn't know why), so your benefit might not be as great... But, in any event, it's inexpensive enough and it won't hurt. As far as the roids are concerned, you'll need to get hold of Big Rog o that one.

Hope you heal quickly
