Hey, Alexx, this is Bryan (map of Dragaera). I also have shoulder issues (my right shoulder), but mine was diagnosed as a Repetitive Stress Injury. It flares up when I have to press and hold a mouse button for extended period of times (prior to this, I didn't realize how much of finger-pressing involves the shoulder). I can play FPSs just fine, but games like Diablo are right out.
One solution I found was to use AutoHotKey to map a key I could press with my left hand to simulate the mouse button being down (or for some games, like planet-scanning in Mass Effect 2, a button that acts as a button-down toggle, so I don't have to hold anything down at all). Maybe something like that could help you offload actions you normally do with your injured shoulder to the other shoulder?
