    day 2 post shoulder op.

    Feels like a gorilla ripped my left arm off. Got 2 ice packs bein changed often to keep the swelling down, and on 2 painkillers alternating every 2hours, so I get about 1.5hrs pain relief at a time.

    Obviously sleep is near impossible, having to lie on my back and cant move at all in any direction :(

    Is porno really such a good idea under the circumstances? Need to have some really conscientious nurses.

    Get yourself one of these... you can wear it all the time, & it'll help you sleep. It works by continuously pumping ice-cold water through the pad, so you don't have to keep changing out ice packs. Just keep adding ice to the pump.

    If they did slip in the odd adult movie then it could be more of an exercise in frustration than anything else! :D

    If you can hardly move your arms... :p

    Hope your recovering well Sarge, hang in there.:)

    Yeah, it is expensive, but it's well worth it as it'll cut your recovery time in half. My mum had one for her shoulder surgery (torn rotator cuff), & it worked wonders.

    Have you got a good physiotherapist to work with Sarge? Not an NHS guy but a sports physio? If not, go see one now, it'll make all the difference.
