Surgery 5/4 - prayers for me please...

[happylabs]

On Wednesday I am having surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff. I have been waiting for this surgery since January when I found out about the tear. The pain is tolerable most days but when I use the arm/shoulder too much, I pay for it painwise. Now that it is getting down to the wire and the surgery is day after tomorrow I am getting nervous.

This is my dominant shoulder/arm. I will be in a sling for 4-6 weeks. I don't really like having to depend upon others to take care of me so this is going to be tough. From what I have read the pain can be bad right after surgery. I have been using the mind over matter theory up until now as far as the pain goes.

I would just like some thoughts and prayers from everyone in the next month or so for a good result and speedy recovery.

Thanks! :) :love:

My mom had rotator cuff surgery. The pain was a challenge immediately afterward but after the first couple of days she felt much better. She'd been in a lot of pain before the surgery though.

Thanks everyone! I am nervous.

I have heard the pain might be bad the first couple of days. I have been in pain with this since December so I am looking forward to getting it resolved.

Prayers coming your way, Helen. I know the anticipation is always awful. I understand too, how hard it is to ask for help when you're independent. Believe me, I buckled down and began to enjoy it. I deserved it and you do too! So milk it!!! Enjoy the painkillers. I'm sure the surgery will go fine. Will you go to PT,,er..physical therapy afterwards?
I'll be thinking about you. Many hugs!:love:
