Thanks for the kind words. This hurts worse than i can remember before my one surgery ugh. Tommorrow is the day! Morning i can't wait actually to maybe get an injection to get some relief argh. I as far as i know didn't have any damage with the one surgery i had seven years ago, but alot has changed as i have ended up with Osteoporosis at an early age. Back then i had bone spurs and bursitis and now they say i only have the bursitis, feels alot worse though. I may have did some damge when i fell more than they know last march when i fell right smack on my shoulder, possibly they didn't catch it on the test? It hurts most of the time all the way down to my elbow. Anyway enough about me. I hope your feeling better today and more days to come with the healing.
Tossthepickle, i hope everything goes well, i'm praying for you!

Surgery is over and i am awake. first lemme apologize for improper grammer. typing 1 handed an in severe pain.....

Monkey, you may have done what i did which wasn't caught by the Mri or xray. I had two complete tears in my cartalidge.

I now have 3 screws in my left shoulder, arthritis, bursitis and tendonitis.

Good news, doc says I may catch the end of the golf season......YAY!

ok..... more medicine and back to sleep

good luck to both of you
 
chin up pickle it doesn't do anything but get better from here, may seem a long way away but keep the pain pills coming ,sleep when ya can .first day of PT for me went pretty well. wife and i was wondering if they gave you a blocker ball for pain. if we don't here from ya for awhile i understand take it easy.
 
Blocker ball? That's a negative.... I am trying to take as little pain medicine as I can but i'm tellin ya, sleepin is the worst!

How often do you have rehab and what type of things do they have you doin? My follow up is on the 12th. I am going to focus on rehab this time!

how is your range of motion an all thar good junk? Are you or have you considered taking anything to speed up the recovery? I ask because I heard of a supplement called MSM that is supposed to to be a "super supplement" geared toward joint repair...
 
take the pain med, the pain med keeps you comfortable, no reason 2 hurt when you don't have too. PT is bad first couple times after that i thought it felt pretty good.I always take a couple of hydrcodones before i go to PT, in mine they move my arm up down and around to keep it from freezing up and to get blood moving. when you lay down put a pillow under your shoulder, seems to help. my problem is that i stiffin up and hurts like hell when i first wake up. if you sleep more than 2 hrs your doing good. thats where the chair comes in it keeps pressure off your shoulder.are you taking oxycodone or hydrocodone. they gave oxyc after surgery and then after a couple weeks switched me to hydrocodone. hope this helps Marco1
