Work out post rotator cuff surgery

Can anyone recommend a good workout for someone 18 months out from rotator cuff surgery? I am finally at a point where I can swim again. I've been trying several different workouts but I can't seem to swim more than 200 yards freestyle at a time without exhausting my shoulder. I've done the full PT and weight program to strengthen my shoulder. It feels strong yet I have to keep switching to breaststroke. I can't seem to get a good workout this way. Breaststroke is my worst and slowest stroke. Any ideas?

    Just a general word of caution (and I'm sure that other Forumites will back me up on this, having expressed similarr opinions in other posts): Stretching is advocated by many, but ............. : Never stretch cold muscles. Stretching is best done after your warm-up or after your session. Never before. Good luck
