This totally depends on the rating the docotr gave you. What rating did he give you? My hubby had the same surgery- twice on same shoulder cuz the dr. missed a bone spur the first time! He was out of work over a year! His rating was a 21 and he did receive hispartial permanent total disability of $29,000 Hope this helps u!
