Shoulder pain....anyone heal?

I have a type 2 slap tear. Doctors said they cannot do surgery because it's not big. 

I feel on the shoulder in July, had a frozen shoulder unfroze in August, I have been doing PT for 5 weeks. I have pain almost constantly, plus my other arm is starting to hurt because I have to use it more.

I'm feel hopeless and depressed. It's been 1 year since slap tear, 2 month since fall, 5 weeks since unfroze.

I have tendinitis and bursitis in my shoulder.

I just want some hope. Has anyone had relief from PT?

My PT said he has seen patients make full recovery.

    I had RC op on right shoulder Oct 16 and type 2 tear on left Dec 16. I was terrified I would need an op on left but 7 months of physio and strengthening it's now as good as my repaired shoulder and continues to get stronger. So hang on in there!
