Shoulder Surgery

[pop pop]

Had my shoulder scoped (3-18-24) on Monday, and really feeling it today. Bone spurs. Removed 2 large ones and cleaned up rotator cuff where the spurs damaged. Very sore this morning. Go for bandage change tomorrow and set P T in motion. Been dealing with much pain for over a year. Was on blood thinner for 4 heart stent insertion last year. Looking forward to improvements.

Prayers sent for a speedy recovery, April 22 to get my right shoulder rotator cuff and bone spur, left 1 might have to wait for another year, it's no where as bad.

Had this done I guess year before last.  Hope yours is different but mine still hurts and LED me to a broken ankle, in hospital now.  Hope you gets better soon, but bear in mind it may still hurt even after extensive physical therapy.

Thanks for the well wishes guys. Going to Physical Therapy now. It is going well, and I am surprised because of all the pain that the shoulder had before surgery. I guess when they relieved the compression on the nerve most of the pain went with it. Dr told my wife he removed 2 large bone spurs along with dressing the frayed rotator cuff that the spurs caused. All I know is it feels much better. Now trying to build strength in the arms. Not easy to do at 76, but I am slowly plugging away at it. I think P T is for 6 weeks, 2 times per week and every day at home. Going to do it. 

Thanks again.

Wife had full blown surgery on her shoulder a couple years ago. I feel for you. Hope PT goes well.
