Health question.. rotator cuff?

I had a 1" full thickness tear on top of my right shoulder. Several people told me I would regret it if I had surgery. I thought "Well. It can't fix itself". I went in to have 3 small incisions and suture the tear back together.
I came out with 8 incisions. Doc said it was torn so bad, the sutures just pulled through. So he cut off part of the tendon, staked the other to my upper arm, cut my biceps tendon loose from my shoulder and anchored it in front of my upper arm bone to make the previous step possible (he called it "biceps tenodesis"). Now my biceps muscle isn't where it's supposed to be. It's down closer to my elbow. Probably 6 months of recovery and rehab before I could set a 5 lb dumbell on a shelf about shoulder level. I wish I had asked questions like "What happens if things don't go according to plan?". I went in expecting at least close to full recovery but now I have a permanent 45 lb limit with my right arm and limited range of motion.
Ask questions.
