I had very similar symptoms. Upon exam and MRI, it was found that I have a torn labrum and torn rotator cuff. The doctor who reviewed the MRI and conducted the exam had me try a cortisone shot first instead of jumping straight to surgery. It took care of the pain, which was mostly due to the inflammation in and around my rotator cuff. Pain hasn't returned, and that was six years ago. I know the cuff and labrum are still torn. It's not like a cortisone shot ca fix a tear. But the pan did go away and has not returned. Of note, I'm still active, and lifting weights is part of my fitness regimen. I say that to point out that just because your rotator cuff is torn, you may not necessarily need to have it repaired to fly safely and still be highly active. You may just need to treat the inflammation. That's just my personal experience.
