I'm set for surgery. April 16, 2013! Had my pre-op appt today. the surgeon is going to use general anesthesia. It will be St. Jude paddle.
He actually said the first week was going to be hell! I'm getting nervous! He has to cut bone...oh my! I want to be ready for recovery. I want to be as comfortable as possible. I think, from what I've read, that I'll want to practically live in a recliner for a while. This is the chair that kind of reclines, that I bought when I had shoulder surgery. ![]() Will this be sufficient/comfortable enough? There's not a lot of padding and it doesn't recline all the way. This is all the way reclined. Is it enough? ![]() Should i see if i can borrow something? I was somewhat uncomfortable with the trial, so I can imagine what the permanent will be like! Any other suggestions for recovery? I'm so scared of the pain! Thank you!
