Rotator Cuff repair X 2 advice needed

<< < (15/18) > >>

Wood2Sawdust:
3 days in shower and shave were great,  4 incisions, pain not bad mostly when doin stretches   melatonin has really helped me sleep good in chair but tired and sleepy a lot, stretch then ice lucky to have a great wife

Wood2Sawdust:
1 week in, actually had 5 incisions,  quit pain meds after 3rd day, walking a mile once a day. very little pain although  more yesterday and today when doing stretches-- exercises

trophyhunt:
Wow, you are killing it!! Doing way better than I did. 

snit:
Glad to hear you're doing well Wood-Dust!

Arthroscopic surgery I presume, thus the 5 small incisions vs 1 8-10" long incision?

Wood2Sawdust:
yes arthroscopic, but surprised they did not do a complete replacement as much damage as there was. MRI was back in august last year and got a lot worse. I imagine they probably need different approval from insurance for that. would like to find out before I have the other done, hopefully july 7 if all goes well with this one
