I am doing much better than expected. I was able to take off my bandage last night, I have 4 little holes/w stitches, felt good to take a shower. Then Dirk put the bandaid's on the incisions. I look like crap, but I really don't care, my hair, ughhhhhhhhh can't do it with one hand.....
 I don't have the pain I had prior to the surgery. I am just really sore, my pain seems to flare up when I am trying to get comfy to sleep, I wake up during the night stiff, sore and in pain. I just can't get comfy, this too shall pass. You really don't realize how much you use your arms. When I had my sling off to do my little exercises and take a shower, I found myself going to use my left arm, it's just habit, that is why you HAVE to keep the sling on most of the time. It's not like if you had a cast on something and couldn't use it at all. It's your shoulder and it is so used to being used. So, I am going to try and take a real good nap today, I really need it.  Hugs, Nikko

We never realise what our body does until something happens to it. It's an amazing machine.
I am so glad you are healing well. I wish the pain and discomfort were over. I have been thinking about you all week. It is remarkable how well you are feeling. Strong lady!! Bear |

I can sure understand how much you use the left arm and shoulder.
Hoping you can get to the beauty shop for a shampoo. That is what I had to do last week because I couldn't lift my arm without screaming. Think I'll be going at least once a week if I can afford it for a while. But we will see. Donna |

Well I found out Friday that I have bursitis in my shoulder. And I am now ordered to not do any thing over head. Which was not a problem. Because
it is hard to move it over head anyway. I got a cortisone shot I was in so much pain. And Have naproxen 500 for the inflamation and am to get a evaluation and start physical therapy for this too. Seems my second home is pt now. Donna |
