Hope all went well Classic! I tore a rotator about 10 years ago, not as bad as yours, but it's not fun!

Good luck...prayers sent!

Still remembering you in prayer friend.

Hope you get well soon.

I seen you were online a little while ago classicfur. How is the shoulder holdin up my man?

Hey guys,

I made it through the surgery in good shape. The surgeon(shoulder specialist) said that the surgery went better than he expected.

Because I live about two hours from the hospital, they kept me over night to monitor the pain. The pain does not seem as bad as the first surgery back in Jan. So for now it's pain meds and 5-6 weeks in a sling and lots of prayer, then many weeks of building up the strength in my shoulder. Sitting around the house is a difficult thing for me! Especially during the winter months, when for awhile I can't take a chance of slipping on some ice or snow outside. It's like strapping myself to the seat on a jet airplane for a couple of months.

I have faith that the Lord will heal it back to a strong shoulder once again, so I can start working and do my favorite hobby, ginseng. It's been comforting to know I have friends like you all, keeping me in your thoughts and prayers. It's no little thing.

God Bless every one of you!

Thanks,
classicfur

Classicfur,
Glad to hear you are doing well. My wife had that done a few years back. She received some pretty powerful pain killers to help but she didn't like to take them. We ended up flushing them after they sat in the medicine cabinet and expired.

One important thing is they gave her and ice vest that went around the shoulder. It was blue and had a tube attached to a small ice cooler. You filled the cooler up with ice water then picked it up and the ice water filled the shoulder vest. The relief was almost immediate. I would help her with it and refill the ice vest with ice water after an hour or two. She swears by it and said it was great for pain and swelling and healing. Did they give you one? If not I bet they might if you ask your Doc about it.
Good luck and We all wish you a speedy recovery.
Thanks,
Latt
