shoulder surgery went great
RideTheGlide:
got home from shoulder surgery a few hours ago. it went well. only the labrum needed stitching, the rotator cuff will rehab okay with intact labrum. some bone spurs were also removed.
i am using sprix, choosing to walk around the opioid mine field. i have pt in 6 days. i should be able to use the hand, sling supported, as soon as the block wears off. after bandage comes off on monday, I can shower and use recumbent.

strange downside - nasal mist messes with stomach
i could be paddling sooner in april than i thought if rehab goes well.
Bean:
Nice! Hope you heal-up fast RTG.
TallDude:
I know lots of swimmers and paddlers that have had that same surgery. You should be in good shape in about 3 months. Not the quickest recovery, but typically a full recovery.
jrandy:
RTG- glad you are in good spirits post-op.
What kind of exam or imaging do they do to determine need for that kind of surgery?
I have a 'friend' who hurt their shoulder but is chicken to go to the doctor...
Bean:
Yea, I have a "friend" like that too ;D
