Have safe surgery... Thinking of you and wish you a speedy recovery!
Peace
You'll be fine, plenty of rest and TLC afterwards.....all the best to you!
Good luck- the recovery will make a tough guy out of you, - I know you can handle it.
My dad and a couple of uncles have had that surgery. Not Fun. But they survived.
Good Luck from me too, Jaguarbass
Hey there JaguarBass,
If I ever have shoulder surgery again there are two things I will get first. (Maybe it's not too late for you.)
1. A la-z-boy type recliner (if you don't already have one). WAY better than trying to get comfortable with pillows on a bed or couch.
2. A shoulder cuff device that envelopes your entire shoulder. It has tubes connected to a sump pump and an ice chest that circulates ice water for as long as you need it. WAY, WAY better pain relief than pills alone and much healthier too.
If you can't get that stuff, (I didn't) you'll still do fine. I think you're probably tougher than me.
All the best,
