Lots of tightness but I can move my right arm much further than before. I do have some tingling in the right arm. On day three today not much much less restriction. I can get up and move on my own. Still very sleepy. I'm on very little pan meds and feeling great!! I am sore but that will pass.

Jess: Thanks for your update and your thread. My 16 yr old daughter is scheduled for surgery with Dr. Thompson this December. Any tips or advice?
