Thanks for the encouragement . Seems like everyone thinks I can do it again eventually, that makes me happy. I don't know new problems I'll have like you speak of, I'm sure I will, just not sure how it'll effect me yet. No more left shoulder rolls? No more of any ukemi,,,,,? That would certainly be bad. Well, I'll just hang in there, be patient and with myself, and hope for the best....

It's an annoying rather than debilitating injury in my experience. I'm sure you are not the only one in your dojo than has done it.
When you meet with your doctor ask for a referral to a physical therapist. They should be able to give you some exercises to help strengthen the area to compensate for the damaged structure. If you follow their instruction you should be able to roll and take any ukemi you feel comfortable doing.
You are far from finished.
