Well I am typing one handed. More was wrong than suspected with my left shoulder Doc removed one inch of my left collar bone, repaired a torn rotator cuff, and removed the bursa. They did a nerve block of my left arm, my fingers, and hand are numb so it is like my left arm is paralized right now.
I just took the first oxicodone, because pain is hitting me now, but also have bag of ice on my shoulder.
im sorry to hear that... oxicodine is nice i was on that when my right shoulder got yanked clean out of the socket... but all in all i hope u make a great recovery, hopefully u can shoot ur bow/gun soon again... just keep fighing and recover fast :boxing:
From recent experience talking, just take it easy. I didn't and now am paying for it. 3-4 days and major pain will start to let up. I hope your recovery goes quick. Ice works wonders after 45 minutes. I packed my neck in ice 3-4 times a day for the first week and it did help. Thats some strong pain med your on, be careful. Good luck on that rehab!
Send me your cell number and I will send you pics from my tree stand to help you through the healing process. I do it to Ronn all the time just to torment him.LOL:biggrin:
Pain... let me tell you about a new level of pain. I'm just glad I got my whitetail buck on Saturday, and just look at the picture and get a big ol grin on my face.
Man that sounds like a whole lot of stuff jacked up in your shoulder. I have shoulder pain deep inside both shoulders along with elbow wrist and of course, knuckles. But the surgery was to get rid of the pain and I hope you recover quickly and get back to hunting. Good Luck!!!
Good news is the pain will ease up day by day. I slept in the lazyboy for 4 nights before i could sleep in bed. Resist the temtation to do anything untill the doc says so. Hope you feel better soon.
I hate for anybody to mess with sleep, money, or hunting! Sounds like you lost all three in one whack. Maybe this comment will find you in a least less pain. Taking care of yourself now can make a big difference later. One Superman moment and you may be back in there next deer season. Man that would suck! Take it easy and be careful with that hillbilly heroin it is very addictive but works well when needed.
Best of luck with your recovery. Have had my share of surgeries and know what you are going through. Have another one scheduled for january to get 3 permanent rods in my foot to try and subside my arthritis (I am 19 and have it bad already from a football accident). GET OFF PAINKILLERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!! A good family friend was on the same stuff as you after exploding a foot (literally) and got hooked. Said he woke up shaking and would crush one, lick his finger and then swipe his tongue and would stop the shakes in 20 seconds. He refuses to ever take that strong of medicine again as it was he#! getting off the stuff without anything but his willpower. Get on over the counter stuff as soon as possible, as tough as it is it is the best thing for you because it can happen fast.
Best wishes in your recovery and hope all goes well and fast. Get back out in the woods soon.:thumbup:
Well I'm already down to just taking the meds once a day, and that is just before I go to sleep to aid in me sleeping..... dang it's 01:19am and ah it aint working.
Well but I am down to 99% free of the meds now.
I will be starting PT on Dec 3rd which will run 3 X for 4 weeks for now.
Coffee is still good at this time of day :biggrin:
Oh yes we are doing much better now, as alot more mobility is happening and I will start PT tomorrow 3x a week for the next 4 wks or so. It will all heal up in time. :biggrin:
