The most important factor in recovery is the Physical Therapy. I put off getting my shoulder fixed was partially because the Orthopedic doc I was going to said it couldn't be fixed and because I figured a little pain never hurt anybody. WE both were wrong. Dennis Ralston recommended the doc that fixed his shoulder and I had it done. Unfortunately they had to open me up to operate. If it can be done orthographically the recovery time is much shorter. Mine was over 25 years ago and I still throw like a girl. Dennis ended up losing leg. Too many injuries, too many pain killers. He was once a world class athlete and number one tennis player in the country.
The big thing is don't push it and keep doing your therapy. You can wait a year and still have fun shooting. I was playing pro am tennis and didn't want to stop, but I was just kidding myself. I was stupid to have pushed it. I wasn't that good anyway.
