I am having my second shoulder surgery next week, as I was on the phone with one of nurse's to confirm. Had a reconstructive surgery in 2018 do to a bad fall on concrete. Rotator cuff is torn again, as well a couple of anchors are detatched. Will be gone for awhile, and my Ranger will be sitting for sometime. The other surgery will be on my back (3rd), that will need reconstructive surgery also...that one will be done whenever.

Take Care TRS...be back when I am able to.

Take care of yourself. We'll leave the light on for you.

Some of my buddys swear by kinetic tape to help hold things together during and after recovery. Hang tuff!

@JohnnyO might have some good pointers if you need them.

Praying for a speedy recovery.

Man... I fear something like this is in my future.

Get well soon...

Thank You, tired of all this pain. With this covid crap happening it is a challenge to take care of everything I need to. Will stop in time to time.

Jim, stayed at many motel 6's over the years on my long distance road trips, and looked for that light to be on each time.

I've had rotator cuff surgery on both shoulders, most recently in March, although my other shoulder 8 years ago was much worse. Sounds like you've been through it already but best advice I have is stay on your pain killers and bust your ass in rehab. Good luck.

Good luck and heal fast.
Sending good thoughts.

Surgery is Friday, and will work as best I can in pt. Will have the same female therapist as I had in 2018 after the first shoulder surgery, we hit it off right at the beginning. For meds, screw that...not taking pain killers. Urb is my medicine.

Will get through this...just scared is all.

When I had my shoulder done, I didn’t take the pain medication long. It gave me an upset stomach made me feel wired. I had a hard time sleeping. After that it was just over the counter pain medication when needed.

Good luck.

 

[Jim Oaks]

Glad all went well. I hope the pain goes away soon.

 

[Saddle Tramp]

Glad you made it through.
Take your meds

Made it thru my surgery Friday. The pain is way worse than the first one two years ago.

I'm glad the surgery went well. If I remember correctly, they were doing more hacking and slashing this time. So, I'm not surprised the pain is more. Hopefully, it eases off pretty quickly for you.
